FULL SHOW: Did socialism cause it? Cleaning up the streets. · The Mark Simone Show

0:00
Speaker 1: Now the Mark Simone show on seven ten wor filling
0:05
Speaker 1: in for Mark, here's Ken Rosatto.
0:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, is it Friday already? It was like, oh, in fact,
0:12
Speaker 2: it's Friday towards the end of August. It's insanity to
0:15
Speaker 2: think that the summer has just flown by, but it has.
0:19
Speaker 2: But nonetheless we will have a good time in the
0:23
Speaker 2: ensuing weeks here or week and a half or so
0:26
Speaker 2: before the end of the month. This is Canrozotto. It's
0:29
Speaker 2: good to be with you for Mark. Mark enjoying a
0:32
Speaker 2: nice long weekend, and it's nice to be in the seat.
0:34
Speaker 2: Of course I'm keeping I'm keeping a good Mark. I
0:37
Speaker 2: put down some blankets on the seat so I don't
0:41
Speaker 2: infect it, and not that I'm sick or anything, but
0:44
Speaker 2: just it's the Mark Simone throne. You don't want to Yeah,
0:47
Speaker 2: you're not worthy of sitting in the seat anyway. It
0:49
Speaker 2: is a Friday morning. We will take calls here at
0:51
Speaker 2: seven ten WR the numbers eight hundred three to two
0:55
Speaker 2: one zero seven ten, eight hundred three two one zero
0:59
Speaker 2: seven ten. How'd y'all fare with the weather? Yesterday? Ray
1:02
Speaker 2: Stagic talking about it. It was a big water spout
1:06
Speaker 2: that moved on to land. You know, when it's in
1:08
Speaker 2: the water, it's kind of weak. They call it a
1:10
Speaker 2: water spout, but as the funnel hits land, it becomes
1:14
Speaker 2: a tornado, and apparently one hit Atlantic Beach on Long
1:19
Speaker 2: Island yesterday late afternoon. Now I follow this guy on YouTube.
1:23
Speaker 2: I'm not going to mention his name because I don't
1:26
Speaker 2: want to take away from our race stagic. But this
1:29
Speaker 2: guy is in the South and he let's just say
1:32
Speaker 2: that the word yawl is part of his name. If
1:35
Speaker 2: you're a weather geek like me, you probably know I'm
1:37
Speaker 2: who I'm talking about. But this guy was live doing
1:41
Speaker 2: this coverage, and he has this network of fellow he
1:45
Speaker 2: calls him like weather geeks, people who are self proclaimed
1:48
Speaker 2: meteorologists all over the country. And they were bringing up
1:51
Speaker 2: video from anywhere that there was a tornado warning and
1:56
Speaker 2: I had it on in the background, being a weather
1:57
Speaker 2: geek myself. And sure enough, they were showing Atlantic Beach
2:02
Speaker 2: as this was happening, and they said, I think this
2:04
Speaker 2: is a water spout just starting to form. They had
2:06
Speaker 2: it live as it was forming. Thankfully, I guess one
2:10
Speaker 2: person had a minor injury. I don't know if it
2:13
Speaker 2: was directly the cause of this. Fortunately minor injury. When
2:16
Speaker 2: you have something like this is a blessing. But take
2:19
Speaker 2: a listen to some of the audio that we got
2:21
Speaker 2: from people who were around the severe weather yesterday.
2:25
Speaker 3: Holy this is a tornado.
2:27
Speaker 2: Wow that is and that is kind of amazing. Living
2:31
Speaker 2: in the Northeast, you don't expect to see something like that,
2:34
Speaker 2: but sure enough a lot of people did. This was
2:36
Speaker 2: in Queen's with all the flooding.
2:37
Speaker 4: Every time with other storms, I run home from work
2:40
Speaker 4: by wondering, Hey.
2:41
Speaker 2: Am I going to make it back safe?
2:43
Speaker 4: Twice this year, once last October during Halloween. Three times
2:47
Speaker 4: within the span of not even one year.
2:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, now, you know, a lot of that happens, my
2:51
Speaker 2: meteorologist friends tell me because in many cases you have
2:54
Speaker 2: garbage on the streets that gets washed into the sewers,
2:58
Speaker 2: plugs up the sewers and then they can't take the water.
3:02
Speaker 2: So it's not necessarily that we're getting more rain or
3:05
Speaker 2: rain more off. In some cases that is the case,
3:08
Speaker 2: but it's because the sewers are not cleaned out. They
3:11
Speaker 2: need to be cleaned out on a regular basis, and
3:14
Speaker 2: that's something that sometimes the municipalities say, Yeah, we could
3:17
Speaker 2: save money. We don't need to do that, but that's
3:20
Speaker 2: part of the problem. You need to keep those sewers
3:22
Speaker 2: clear at all times. Jersey City also had a lot
3:24
Speaker 2: of rain, and.
3:25
Speaker 5: I saw like almost six or seven cars who are like,
3:28
Speaker 5: you know, installed there around me.
3:30
Speaker 4: Yeah.
3:31
Speaker 5: I was just driving under the bridge and I think
3:35
Speaker 5: was like worder level was very high.
3:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, and just about ten miles away from there in Passaic.
3:40
Speaker 3: Came down really heavy.
3:41
Speaker 4: There was a flood everywhere.
3:42
Speaker 6: I came down from Passaic or Route twenty one.
3:45
Speaker 4: Flood everywhere, Belleville everywhere, flood everywhere as well, coming down
3:50
Speaker 4: on By one and nine by Jerseys City as well.
3:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you looked at any of the radars, it
3:55
Speaker 2: was just purples and reds throughout the whole tri state.
3:58
Speaker 2: So it was serious weather. And in times like that,
4:01
Speaker 2: you know, flash flooding happens. And most of the area
4:05
Speaker 2: got like four inches of rain in just a short
4:07
Speaker 2: amount of time. So that was an absolute mess. Fortunately
4:11
Speaker 2: everybody seemed to fare well. Some areas still have a
4:15
Speaker 2: little floodwater receding right now. I know Secaucus or secaucas
4:20
Speaker 2: how do you pronounce it, Seacaucus or Sicaucas both are
4:22
Speaker 2: apparently correct. They had some flooding, I know on the
4:27
Speaker 2: service roads near Route three apparently still flooded this morning.
4:31
Speaker 2: But that'll all try out today, Ray Stagic saying that
4:34
Speaker 2: throughout the day today, you're only going to have partly
4:36
Speaker 2: cloudy skies, but chance of some more storms over the weekend.
4:40
Speaker 2: Not as bad as we just had, but nonetheless more
4:42
Speaker 2: stormy weather. Seven to ten WO are the Voice of
4:46
Speaker 2: New York. It's Ken Rosotto, former TV news guy, in
4:49
Speaker 2: for the great Mark Simone on this Friday. If you're
4:52
Speaker 2: wondering where has Ken beIN? He used to work at
4:54
Speaker 2: Channel seven for twenty years. Where's he been? I was
4:57
Speaker 2: a Channel five before that. These days, I'm on on
5:00
Speaker 2: New Jersey, which is a New Jersey TV news, talk, opinion, weather,
5:05
Speaker 2: it's traffic channel. It's twenty four hours a DAYNENJ dot com.
5:10
Speaker 2: You could stream it anywhere ONENJ dot com on New Jersey.
5:14
Speaker 2: We hope you check us out sometimes too. But I
5:17
Speaker 2: also work here, obviously at iHeart and love my time
5:20
Speaker 2: filling in here at iHeartRadio, one of America's great radio corporations,
5:26
Speaker 2: the largest. And if you heard Curtis this morning on
5:30
Speaker 2: earlier talking about Yesterday was National Radio Day, and not
5:36
Speaker 2: a lot of companies are true diehard radio fans. A
5:41
Speaker 2: lot of the corporations that own broadcast media today just
5:45
Speaker 2: own them as entities. And you could just tell when
5:48
Speaker 2: they don't love what they do and what they own.
5:51
Speaker 2: iHeart is different. iHeart loves broadcasting. They love radio, and
5:58
Speaker 2: that's why they have between somewhere between eight and nine
6:01
Speaker 2: hundred stations. I've lost count. But they love what they
6:04
Speaker 2: do and they love their radio stations, and they own
6:08
Speaker 2: literally some of the most historic radio broadcast entities in America,
6:13
Speaker 2: like this one, fifty thousand watt clear channels seven to
6:17
Speaker 2: ten wor. This is just a monster signal that covers
6:21
Speaker 2: the whole region of the country, not just the New
6:23
Speaker 2: York area. You could hear this huge signal up and
6:26
Speaker 2: down the mid Atlantic with its massive footprint, and at
6:32
Speaker 2: night you could hear it even farther. It goes about
6:34
Speaker 2: five six hundred miles clear as a bell at night.
6:38
Speaker 2: But yesterday they took National Radio Day seriously as they should,
6:43
Speaker 2: and a lot of the broadcasters from this station were
6:46
Speaker 2: honored and talked to, and they got to speak to everybody,
6:50
Speaker 2: and it was just wonderful and we just have a good,
6:52
Speaker 2: nice group of people when I walk on the door
6:54
Speaker 2: here and see some of the folks who work in
6:57
Speaker 2: this building. Of course, Curtis, you know, is just an
7:01
Speaker 2: amazing man now that he's on at the morning show
7:03
Speaker 2: as well. It's just, you know, Larry is just a sweetheart.
7:08
Speaker 2: He and I He worked at Channel seven before me,
7:11
Speaker 2: but he is historic as a broadcaster between New York
7:14
Speaker 2: and Philadelphia. And just to get to know Larry now
7:17
Speaker 2: personally is an amazing thing. And of course Mark Simone.
7:20
Speaker 2: Mark Simone is not it's not an opinion, it's by ratings,
7:25
Speaker 2: by fact, the most listened to talk radio host in America.
7:30
Speaker 2: Certainly in New York he's number one. It's between him
7:33
Speaker 2: and Sean Hannity. Of course nationwide also here on seven
7:37
Speaker 2: ten wor These are great broadcast entities and it's all
7:41
Speaker 2: part of the iHeart family. So I'm just honored to
7:43
Speaker 2: be here and filling in. But we want to hear
7:45
Speaker 2: what you have to say. Eight hundred three to two
7:47
Speaker 2: one zero seven ten. Eight hundred three to two one
7:50
Speaker 2: zero seven ten. You know, for months, President Trump's been
7:54
Speaker 2: pushing to have the Save America Act past and he's
7:58
Speaker 2: saying it would pose an egg essential threat to our country,
8:02
Speaker 2: to our democratic republic if it doesn't pass. And if
8:06
Speaker 2: you think about it, that's not hyperbole because if you
8:09
Speaker 2: have potentially tens of millions of illegal migrants who've come in,
8:14
Speaker 2: now you're talking about this country just being rife with
8:17
Speaker 2: potential fraud, voter fraud. We already know in New Jersey. Remember,
8:22
Speaker 2: we were told, first absolutely nobody who is in pardon
8:26
Speaker 2: me here illegally me just hit the cough button. Pardon me,
8:30
Speaker 2: Thank goodness for the cough button. You didn't have to
8:32
Speaker 2: hear that. We were told that nobody who's here illegally
8:37
Speaker 2: is registered to vote. Then we were told some people
8:39
Speaker 2: may have registered to vote, but they didn't actually vote.
8:42
Speaker 2: Then we're told, oh, some people voted, but it doesn't
8:45
Speaker 2: really count, it's too tiny. Then it was oh, well,
8:47
Speaker 2: thousands registered to vote who shouldn't have, but only a
8:50
Speaker 2: couple of hundred actually voted. Now it could be a
8:53
Speaker 2: lot of people who voted. Where do we get that number? Well,
8:57
Speaker 2: we get that number of a lot. Where am I
8:59
Speaker 2: getting that? We now know that the federal government has
9:03
Speaker 2: taken a look at the New Jersey voter roles. So
9:05
Speaker 2: we're going to talk more later in the show about this.
9:08
Speaker 2: And they have found as many as thirty five to
9:10
Speaker 2: forty thousand people who they've crossed referenced see New Jersey's
9:15
Speaker 2: not cooperating with the FEDS, But the FEDS did some
9:17
Speaker 2: work on their own, thirty five to forty thousand people
9:20
Speaker 2: apparently here illegally who may have registered to vote in
9:25
Speaker 2: the state of New Jersey. New Jersey saying they only
9:27
Speaker 2: have a few thousand, Well, there's quite a disparaty between
9:30
Speaker 2: a few thousand and thirty five to forty thousand. Go
9:33
Speaker 2: to the New Jersey State Republicans, they say there are as
9:37
Speaker 2: many as seventy nine thousand. Where do they get their
9:41
Speaker 2: numbers from? They say that people who are selected to
9:46
Speaker 2: be on juries in New Jersey are selected based on
9:50
Speaker 2: people who have driver's licenses with the New Jersey MVC,
9:54
Speaker 2: the Motor Vehicle Commission, which is their answer to the
9:57
Speaker 2: DMV in New York. And people who are selected for
10:02
Speaker 2: juries have responded, I can't serve on the jury because
10:07
Speaker 2: I am not a legal alien in the United States.
10:10
Speaker 2: I'm not a citizen. But in order to have been selected,
10:15
Speaker 2: they had to be, they had to have drivers' licenses
10:18
Speaker 2: and be registered to vote.
10:19
Speaker 3: So.
10:21
Speaker 2: That either they lied about not being citizens, but yet
10:25
Speaker 2: they're still registered to vote, which could be the case,
10:29
Speaker 2: but yet it's something that has to be investigated. Right,
10:32
Speaker 2: So the state Republicans in New Jersey say as many
10:34
Speaker 2: as seventy nine thousand people that they know of are
10:38
Speaker 2: illegals who are registered to vote. So the number we
10:41
Speaker 2: know is on the low end, what sixty six hundred
10:44
Speaker 2: and on the high end, seventy nine thousand. That's a
10:47
Speaker 2: lot of people. It shouldn't be one. We should not
10:51
Speaker 2: have one illegal migrant, anyone who's not a citizen, even
10:55
Speaker 2: a legal resident, you should not be registered to vote.
10:59
Speaker 2: Supposed to be only citizens are supposed to vote. But
11:03
Speaker 2: the Democrats intentionally set this up to have confusion. What
11:08
Speaker 2: am I talking about? I mean having driver's licenses for
11:12
Speaker 2: people who are not here legally. Well, if you're not
11:14
Speaker 2: here legally, why do anything to invite people to stay
11:17
Speaker 2: longer when they're already not here legally. You shouldn't do
11:20
Speaker 2: things to make it more comfortable. You should say I'm sorry,
11:23
Speaker 2: but all right. You could be here until you're not
11:26
Speaker 2: find a way home. And then apply to be a
11:28
Speaker 2: citizen and come back. But until then you shouldn't be
11:31
Speaker 2: here all I'm sorry, it's not allowed. That's like you
11:34
Speaker 2: find somebody living in your attic. You hear noise, you
11:37
Speaker 2: think it's squirrels. For months and months, some i'ms saying,
11:40
Speaker 2: now there's noise up there, squirrels, And you go up
11:42
Speaker 2: there and you find people living in your attic. You
11:44
Speaker 2: don't then start bringing them food and water and clothing.
11:49
Speaker 2: You say, all right, here, I'll give you a snack,
11:52
Speaker 2: but you gotta leave. You gotta go. You can't stay
11:55
Speaker 2: in my attic. And it's the same thing, Ken, that's
11:57
Speaker 2: a rude way to talk about human beings. Those human
12:00
Speaker 2: beings broke into our home. Sorry, let's just say what
12:03
Speaker 2: it is. They're burglars. You didn't break into their home.
12:07
Speaker 2: We didn't go into their country. You try going into
12:10
Speaker 2: Mexico illegally, You try going into El Salvador illegally, you'll
12:14
Speaker 2: be arrested, You will be tossed in jail, and it
12:18
Speaker 2: might be years before you can get out. But yet
12:20
Speaker 2: we have no problem keeping our borders open and letting
12:23
Speaker 2: people in here. Even liberal Canada, Liberal Canada change the rules.
12:28
Speaker 2: They used to have birthright citizenship, they used to let
12:30
Speaker 2: people off. They're here illegally. Whatever, they're changing their tune
12:33
Speaker 2: now in Canada as well. Europe has had it with illegals.
12:37
Speaker 2: They've had it. They have the migrants who are there
12:39
Speaker 2: right now have overtaken lands. They've actually set up parts
12:42
Speaker 2: of Paris. You can't even recognize parts of Paris. They
12:45
Speaker 2: are no go zones with the Islamic sectors of Paris,
12:50
Speaker 2: where the police don't go in because they're not wanted
12:53
Speaker 2: and it can cause a riot. So rather than doing
12:55
Speaker 2: something about it, the liberal Parisians said, well, let's just
12:57
Speaker 2: not go in that area. Really, you're just going to
12:59
Speaker 2: surrender head of the land of the city to a
13:01
Speaker 2: group because they don't want you there. It's just ridiculous
13:04
Speaker 2: and this is what liberalism and socialism has gotten us.
13:08
Speaker 7: Well.
13:08
Speaker 2: To get back to this story, here at seventh ten
13:10
Speaker 2: wor the Voice of New York, hen Risotto in from
13:13
Speaker 2: Mark in Alaska, there is a senator who has been
13:17
Speaker 2: senator for almost three decades, Lisa Murkowski. Lisa is a Rhino.
13:22
Speaker 2: She is a Republican in name only. She never votes
13:26
Speaker 2: less than fifty percent of the time does she vote
13:27
Speaker 2: with Republicans. The only reason why she still serves a
13:30
Speaker 2: purpose is she keeps the Republican Party in the majority
13:34
Speaker 2: in the Senate, because if she were a registered Democrat,
13:37
Speaker 2: you could lose committee heads and things like that. So
13:40
Speaker 2: you want to have a majority Republican in the number
13:44
Speaker 2: of Republicans in the Senate and in the House, ostensibly
13:47
Speaker 2: to be in charge and run the agenda in the
13:50
Speaker 2: respective house. So she Lisa Murkowski is against the Save Act,
13:56
Speaker 2: the Save America Act. She is one of the Senators
14:00
Speaker 2: who was preventing it from coming up for a vote
14:02
Speaker 2: in the Senate. So in the House this has passed
14:05
Speaker 2: four times. It has passed in different iterations. It is passed,
14:10
Speaker 2: and all four of the bills have made their way
14:13
Speaker 2: to the Senate only to sit there on John Thune's
14:15
Speaker 2: desk and do nothing. They just sit there collecting dust.
14:19
Speaker 2: And of course, the President said, before the Senators take
14:23
Speaker 2: their needless vacations of weeks and weeks, please pass the
14:27
Speaker 2: Save America Act. They pass all this other nonsense that
14:30
Speaker 2: ends up putting money in their pockets, but they didn't
14:32
Speaker 2: want to pass the Save America Act. So Lisa Murkowski
14:36
Speaker 2: would not support the Save America Act. She says it's
14:39
Speaker 2: overly burdensome. Really really, well, think about this. James O'Keeffe
14:46
Speaker 2: of O'Keeffe media group, he used to be with Project Veritas.
14:49
Speaker 2: He's the guy you see online who goes up to
14:52
Speaker 2: people with secret, hidden cameras and gets them, usually people
14:56
Speaker 2: on the left, to admit things that we know are happening.
15:00
Speaker 2: The left denies it in public, but we get them
15:02
Speaker 2: on video acknowledging, like he was the one who exposed
15:06
Speaker 2: an abortionist from one of the big abortion groups. I'll
15:10
Speaker 2: let you figure out which, talking about harvesting organs from
15:14
Speaker 2: babies and selling them. And later they denied it. Well,
15:18
Speaker 2: why did you say it on You know, you said
15:20
Speaker 2: it what you thought was privately. You admitted it to
15:22
Speaker 2: a person, but it was not true. So anyway, he is.
15:26
Speaker 2: James O'Keefe is notorious for doing this. He walked up
15:30
Speaker 2: to a polling place on Wednesday when Alaska had its
15:33
Speaker 2: primaries and he said he was Lisa Murkowski's brother, Brian Murkowski. Now,
15:39
Speaker 2: Alaska is a small place. Alaska only has seven hundred
15:42
Speaker 2: and fifty thousand people in the entire state, and their
15:45
Speaker 2: land mass is fourteen thousand times the land mass of
15:49
Speaker 2: the Bronx. That's a real statistic, fourteen thousand times the
15:53
Speaker 2: land mass, which means like there's one person for every
15:56
Speaker 2: twelve miles of land or some silliness like that. So
15:59
Speaker 2: people know each other in Alaska. Even in cities, you
16:02
Speaker 2: know everybody. I think Anchorage is their biggest city with
16:05
Speaker 2: like seventy nine thousand people. So people do know each
16:08
Speaker 2: other in all the cities in Alaska. For the most part,
16:11
Speaker 2: people have lived there most of their lives. James O'Keefe
16:15
Speaker 2: walked up to the pollsters or the polling place I
16:17
Speaker 2: should say the people were running the polling place, and
16:19
Speaker 2: said he was Brian Murkowski, Lisa Murkowski's brother. Nobody questioned him.
16:25
Speaker 2: They all knew. Most of the people knew. But under
16:27
Speaker 2: Alaska law, you're not allowed to demand id. If somebody
16:31
Speaker 2: asks for a ballot, you have to give him the ballot.
16:34
Speaker 2: So guess what. They handed him a ballot, and fortunately
16:38
Speaker 2: he had it on video to prove it, but he
16:40
Speaker 2: didn't do the illegal act of voting. He did. That's
16:43
Speaker 2: when he could get arrested. He handed the ballot back,
16:46
Speaker 2: but it's on video of him accepting the ballot of
16:49
Speaker 2: somebody else, the brother of the most powerful senator in
16:53
Speaker 2: Alaskan history. That's who he claimed to be, and he
16:57
Speaker 2: was given the person's ballot. This is a perfect example
17:01
Speaker 2: of why voter idea at the polls isn't just a
17:03
Speaker 2: good idea, but it's essential if we want to preserve
17:06
Speaker 2: our republic. Everybody can get identification if you have been
17:11
Speaker 2: born in the US, you have a birth certificate, you
17:14
Speaker 2: have a Social Security card. Those things right there will
17:17
Speaker 2: get you anything else. If you lose either, you can
17:20
Speaker 2: get a duplicate and don't forget other than if you
17:23
Speaker 2: have a burner phone. By burner phone, I mean the
17:26
Speaker 2: phones that you buy that have built in thirty minutes
17:29
Speaker 2: of time. You get them at Walmart and you throw
17:30
Speaker 2: them out when you're done. That's what the drug dealers use.
17:34
Speaker 2: Unless you have a burner phone, you need to have
17:36
Speaker 2: ID to buy a cell phone because you have to
17:40
Speaker 2: establish credit to pay for the account. And I'm sorry,
17:43
Speaker 2: but I don't know a human in poor neighborhoods are
17:46
Speaker 2: rich who does not have a cell phone. So that
17:48
Speaker 2: means at some point the individuals had to present ID.
17:53
Speaker 2: In fact, I defy a liberal. To present me with
17:56
Speaker 2: a human who is a citizen of the US in
17:58
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six who does not possess an ID doesn't exist.
18:03
Speaker 2: And women who marry and change their names usually up
18:06
Speaker 2: their id's almost immediately. If they decide to change their name,
18:09
Speaker 2: they go and they have that taking care. If it
18:11
Speaker 2: could be done in five minutes, you get your ID
18:12
Speaker 2: change one, two, three, it's done. So spare me the
18:16
Speaker 2: nonsense that anyone would be kept from voting because of
18:19
Speaker 2: access to identification. Well, quickly back to James O'Keefe, because
18:24
Speaker 2: I know we got to go to a break here.
18:26
Speaker 2: In twenty twelve, he did the same thing. He walked
18:28
Speaker 2: into a polling place in Washington, d C. Claiming to
18:31
Speaker 2: be Attorney General Eric Holder, who is African American. James
18:34
Speaker 2: O'Keeffe is white, and yet he was given a ballot.
18:38
Speaker 2: And when Eric Holder showed up for real, he was told, Oh,
18:42
Speaker 2: somebody already got your ballot. Is what do you mean?
18:46
Speaker 2: But this is the thing, because Washington, d C. Does
18:48
Speaker 2: not require ID to get the ballot to vote. You
18:51
Speaker 2: need IDEA to fly in a plane, you need ID
18:53
Speaker 2: to apply for a credit card to check into a hotel,
18:55
Speaker 2: to rent a car, to apply for a mortgage, sign
18:57
Speaker 2: the lease, open a bank account as we mentioned, and
19:00
Speaker 2: get a cell phone. If you want to buy cigarettes
19:02
Speaker 2: or lottery tickets and they have to check your age.
19:04
Speaker 2: You want to get hired at a job, claim unemployment,
19:06
Speaker 2: get a Social Security card and roll and medicaid, pick
19:09
Speaker 2: up certain prescriptions, get a marriage license, purchase a firearm,
19:12
Speaker 2: adopt a pet, at about a thousand other things. You
19:15
Speaker 2: need to have IDs. So stop with your silliness. It's
19:19
Speaker 2: it's like you are punking us to tell us that
19:21
Speaker 2: no everybody has ID. Yes, everybody has ID or can
19:25
Speaker 2: easily get it, and we need to impose a rule
19:28
Speaker 2: that you need to have ID to vote. It's the
19:30
Speaker 2: most sacred of all our abilities, and it's something that
19:34
Speaker 2: we should require an ID for seven to ten WR
19:37
Speaker 2: the Voice of New York Ken Rosotto Infro Mark on

Speaker 2: great Mark Simone, who is resting up after the big
20:08
Speaker 2: night or the big yesterday. I guess it was late
20:11
Speaker 2: late afternoon, early evening that the good folks at iHeart
20:14
Speaker 2: had to do a meet and greet with folks. Just
20:18
Speaker 2: I love iHeart for that for a thousand reasons. iHeart
20:21
Speaker 2: preserving the greatness of radio broadcast like nobody else, nobody
20:26
Speaker 2: else's business. Just to continue on with the conversation that
20:30
Speaker 2: we had there a moment ago before we take calls
20:32
Speaker 2: and we go to news here just talking about what
20:36
Speaker 2: ID is required for. I forgot one thing. You know,
20:39
Speaker 2: when you are three years old and you want to
20:41
Speaker 2: be entered into like pre K and whatnot, you need
20:45
Speaker 2: the child's birth certific get in social Security number if
20:48
Speaker 2: you want to get the child into school. So everyone
20:51
Speaker 2: has ID. I mean, unless you were born on Mars
20:56
Speaker 2: and teleported to the Earth, you have an ID from.
21:00
Speaker 2: So don't give me this. It's too much of a
21:02
Speaker 2: hardship for people to get a gentification. You don't have
21:04
Speaker 2: to get it, you have it from when you are born,
21:07
Speaker 2: you have identification if you live in the United States,
21:09
Speaker 2: and if you lost it, you could even go online
21:12
Speaker 2: and renew it. So stop the nonsense. It is a
21:15
Speaker 2: Democrat talking point because they want people to vote illegally, period.
21:21
Speaker 2: The more illegal votes they get. Listen, let me stop
21:25
Speaker 2: mid sentence. I've said this before and I'll say it again.
21:28
Speaker 2: If Democrats were assured that people voting illegally vote strictly
21:33
Speaker 2: for conservative Republicans, you would have nineteen thousand forms of
21:37
Speaker 2: ID required at the polling place. The fact that you
21:40
Speaker 2: don't tells you everything about the fact that they like
21:43

22:19
Speaker 2: Hi Hi, what can I do for you?
22:23
Speaker 8: El what hosts refer to America as a democracy, it's
22:33
Speaker 8: really a democratic republic and yet defines their values.
22:41
Speaker 2: Yes, and I'll I don't mean to step in on you. I'll,
22:44
Speaker 2: I don't mean to step in on you only because
22:46
Speaker 2: we're a little tight on time. Not only is a
22:48
Speaker 2: democratic republic, which you're one hundred percent correct, and you're right,
22:53
Speaker 2: you can tell right away with somehow politics you Oh,
22:56
Speaker 2: there you go. You could tell somebody's politics. Why they
22:59
Speaker 2: call it a democrat se versus a republic? Right?
23:03
Speaker 8: Yeah, the idea of democracy is everything free, so to speak.
23:09
Speaker 2: M hm. And everybody else, everybody gets an equals say,
23:12
Speaker 2: you're absolutely right, my friend. We go to Patent Scarsdale. Hello, Pat,
23:17
Speaker 2: how are you ken? Good sir?
23:20
Speaker 9: I had just said two points? One point was? I
23:23
Speaker 9: know you folks are on top of the news. Remember
23:25
Speaker 9: that leaker that leaked in the Supreme Court going back.
23:30
Speaker 10: A year or two.
23:30
Speaker 2: Uh huh.
23:31
Speaker 9: Yes, they leaked the announcement about Roe v. Wade, and
23:36
Speaker 9: they said we're going to catch catch this person and
23:38
Speaker 9: we're going to make sure that they've brought the justice.
23:40
Speaker 9: I never heard another word.
23:42
Speaker 2: Well, that's because it was a Democrat. I mean, you know,
23:45
Speaker 2: listen who. It wouldn't have benefited the Republicans, the conservative justices.
23:49
Speaker 2: It would have only benefited the liberals, right, So you
23:51
Speaker 2: know that because of that, you'll never hear another word
23:55
Speaker 2: about it. They know it's a very small little clique
23:58
Speaker 2: in the Supreme Court, all right. In Scotus, everybody knows everybody,
24:02
Speaker 2: no matter which side you're on, so they certainly know
24:05
Speaker 2: who leaked. And Washington is a very close, clicky place.
24:09
Speaker 2: Everybody knows who leaked, but they keep their mouthshut because
24:11
Speaker 2: they protect their own. And by the way, I'm sure
24:13
Speaker 2: even the conservatives there are protecting the liberals because the reverse.
24:17
Speaker 2: I'm sure someday will be true. Sadly, that's the way
24:20
Speaker 2: it works.
24:20
Speaker 9: Indeed, exactly right one to a point, Sure, WO tends
24:25
Speaker 9: to be leadings of Right of Santa a conservative radio station.
24:31
Speaker 9: Why did they and I know it's commercial radio, but
24:33
Speaker 9: why did they have so many ads for people that
24:36
Speaker 9: can avoid paying taxes? You know, I listened to the
24:39
Speaker 9: radio religiously three or four hours, and I tell you
24:43
Speaker 9: the truth, my hair goes on fire when I hear
24:45
Speaker 9: even Sean Hannity. You know, you miss the right way,
24:48
Speaker 9: always promoting these ways to avoid paying taxes.
24:52
Speaker 2: Listen if the law, if that's the way the law
24:54
Speaker 2: is written, it's not about why would you pay taxes
24:57
Speaker 2: if the law says you don't have the bay taxes.
24:59
Speaker 2: If you want to listen and you want to pay
25:00
Speaker 2: more taxes, you got to pay all the taxes you want.
25:03
Speaker 2: The law says you don't have to pay taxes. If
25:05
Speaker 2: you cross the street on the left side and make
25:07
Speaker 2: a left turn, then you cross the street on the
25:09
Speaker 2: left side and make a left turn. You're not breaking
25:11
Speaker 2: the law. You're just watching the law, following the rules. Now,
25:14
Speaker 2: that's the thing. People covetch, if I could use a
25:16
Speaker 2: nice good Yiddish term, they covetch when other people are
25:19
Speaker 2: smart enough to take advantage of a loophole that allows
25:22
Speaker 2: them to do it. I say, either change the law
25:25
Speaker 2: or we should all applaud the people who are smart
25:28
Speaker 2: enough to use it. It's as simple as that, right,
25:30
Speaker 2: Joe and Elmwood, good morning, Good.
25:32
Speaker 11: Morning, Ken. We heard four hundred. There was more than
25:36
Speaker 11: four hundred and at the start.
25:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Joe, let me back up. It's four hundred
25:39
Speaker 2: who they say actually voted. But there were tens of
25:43
Speaker 2: thousands potentially who are registered.
25:46
Speaker 11: And we heard one story of fraud and then how
25:48
Speaker 11: it's crickets. There must be thousands of fraud in New Jersey. Okay,
25:53
Speaker 11: and one more boy, kudos to Ireland because they had enough.
25:57
Speaker 11: The people are uprising. They had enough with the illegals.
26:01
Speaker 2: And listen, not only I'll tell you when we know
26:04
Speaker 2: what's going on over in Europe. Europe is always about
26:07
Speaker 2: six to nine months ahead of what we're going to
26:09
Speaker 2: see here. And in Europe they are now fed up.
26:11
Speaker 2: The European Union has voted to kick out illegal migrants finally,
26:16
Speaker 2: so now they're just beginning the process. The fact that
26:18
Speaker 2: they're doing that, they're fed up. That tells me that
26:21
Speaker 2: America is going to get to a point. If you
26:22
Speaker 2: think they had enough, and that's why they elected Trump,
26:26
Speaker 2: you just wait, people, If the Democrats, god forbid, get
26:29
Speaker 2: into power and they start switching things around and letting
26:33
Speaker 2: people in illegally again, you're going to see an uprising
26:35
Speaker 2: like you've never seen before. All right, Joe, thank you
26:39
Speaker 2: so much. Say hello my buddies in New Jersey, love
26:41
Speaker 2: it all right. My friend Robert in Westchester, good morning,
26:44
Speaker 2: you're on the Mark Simone Show.
26:47
Speaker 7: Good Morning, Ken, How are you.
26:49
Speaker 2: I'm great. Yeah, that's where I'm born and raised in
26:51
Speaker 2: you Rochelle.
26:53
Speaker 7: Ah, See, why'd you move though? I know why you moved.
26:56
Speaker 2: No, honestly, I'll tell you. I'll tell you why I moved.
26:59
Speaker 2: I'll tell you right now. When I had moved to
27:01
Speaker 2: Miami because I was working for a TV station there.
27:03
Speaker 2: When I came back to the New York area, I
27:05
Speaker 2: initially went back to Nurschelle, but because I was working
27:08
Speaker 2: a Channel seven, which is on the West side of Manhattan,
27:11
Speaker 2: to commute down from Narrochelle and Crosstown took me like
27:15
Speaker 2: an extra hour, and I said, I'm tired of crossing Manhattan.
27:18
Speaker 2: And that's why I moved to New Jersey. It's easy
27:20
Speaker 2: to come into the West Side from New Jersey than
27:22
Speaker 2: it is from west Chester. That's the honest reason.
27:25
Speaker 7: I believe you. I believe if. I mean when I
27:27
Speaker 7: first moved into Westchester, it was a paradise, but rob
27:32
Speaker 7: Astorno was the executive at the time, and it was
27:35
Speaker 7: more of our thinking. Now, it's like the Titanic. I'm
27:40
Speaker 7: scrambling to get to the top of the bow. But
27:43
Speaker 7: if I get on a lifeboat and get out of here.
27:45
Speaker 7: Believe me, I would. But I have a question for you.
27:48
Speaker 7: The first is this guy ass Off I believe is
27:51
Speaker 7: his name. He's running for senate. I heard he's leading
27:55
Speaker 7: in the polls. Please tell me that's incorrect.
27:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, don't follow the polls this far. That means nothing.
28:01
Speaker 2: Remember who was leading in the polls in twenty fourteen
28:03
Speaker 2: for president? Do you remember?
28:06
Speaker 12: Oh?
28:06
Speaker 7: I absolutely do.
28:08
Speaker 2: I tell everybody, Tell everybody who was leading in the
28:10
Speaker 2: polls in twenty fourteen.
28:12
Speaker 7: Twenty fourteen. If it was the Democrat it was Hillary No.
28:16
Speaker 2: Well yes, But who was the Republican who was way ahead,
28:20
Speaker 2: like ninety percent?
28:21
Speaker 7: George Bush Junior? It was Jeb I'm no Jeb Jeb.
28:25
Speaker 2: Right, Jeb Bush. And you know what Jeb Bush ended
28:28
Speaker 2: up getting in the primaries three percent. So that just
28:31
Speaker 2: tells you, I mean, and that was a matter of
28:33
Speaker 2: like less than a year. He went from ninety percent
28:36
Speaker 2: to three percent. So don't don't get excited by this.
28:40
Speaker 2: He is the flavored du jour for the Democrats. There's
28:43
Speaker 2: a lot of time. There's a lot of time left,
28:45
Speaker 2: so don't don't be Yeah, this way, I.
28:48
Speaker 7: Believe you Paisan, I believe you. The only thing is
28:50
Speaker 7: that George is supposed to be like one of us
28:52
Speaker 7: is supposed to be a red state. That's the only
28:54
Speaker 7: thing that makes me. It unnerves me. But my next
28:57
Speaker 7: thing that I want to say, I had a friend
28:58
Speaker 7: of mine, he served in Afghanistan. He was a Marine,
29:03
Speaker 7: and he was a young man. This kid was blown
29:06
Speaker 7: out of his jeep by one of those improvised exploit iudsed.
29:12
Speaker 2: Is something entirely different.
29:14
Speaker 7: Right, I know, I keep on getting those two. I'm
29:17
Speaker 7: so sorry everyone today, but you know what happened. He
29:20
Speaker 7: dusted himself off, he got checked out, and he stayed
29:23
Speaker 7: with his with his troops, with his Marines. I begged
29:27
Speaker 7: him to call you guys and say he wouldn't even
29:30
Speaker 7: do that because he says it's not my place to
29:33
Speaker 7: do that, and I don't need to throw his spersions
29:35
Speaker 7: or whatever. But it just disheartens me that our navy,
29:39
Speaker 7: the guys are say, guys, you're on his ship. Nobody's
29:42
Speaker 7: shooting at you, not being blown out of it. I
29:44
Speaker 7: don't know what how the saint, Oh, the toilets smell
29:47
Speaker 7: like mold, and a couple of other things. I mean,
29:51
Speaker 7: really we're fighting an enemy that wants to destroy us.
29:54
Speaker 7: These people have been killing us for fifty years. I
29:58
Speaker 7: mean when I saw during the BIS up the Semi
30:01
Speaker 7: Bison tennual, what the American troops went through in Valley Forge,
30:05
Speaker 7: those kids knew they would dine, but they wouldn't weave.
30:08
Speaker 7: They stayed at Valley. They believed in having a nation.
30:12
Speaker 7: That's It's just we're.
30:14
Speaker 2: A softer generation of people. We're softer, you know, come on,
30:17
Speaker 2: let's face it. In World War Two, people sixteen year
30:21
Speaker 2: olds lied about their age in order to get into
30:24
Speaker 2: the military because they were raised with a certain level
30:27
Speaker 2: of pride of their country, that they had to serve
30:29
Speaker 2: the country no matter what. There was valor in going
30:32
Speaker 2: off and defending your nation. Today it's about, you know,
30:35
Speaker 2: living in mommy and Daddy's basement and playing with video games.
30:38
Speaker 2: And you know that doesn't mean listen, God bless I
30:41
Speaker 2: didn't volunteer for the military. So I'm not going to
30:43
Speaker 2: say that God bless all of them for doing it.
30:46
Speaker 2: But I think we're raised in a softer environment. We
30:48
Speaker 2: have our air conditioning, and suddenly you're put in a
30:50
Speaker 2: cramped environment. You have to sleep twelve on twelve off
30:53
Speaker 2: in the same bunk with people. It's a different thing.
30:56
Speaker 2: And you know, we're just not used to that kind
30:58
Speaker 2: of lifestyle anymore.
31:00
Speaker 7: No, absolutely, But you know what I called you a
31:02
Speaker 7: while ago, and I said that same point about World
31:04
Speaker 7: War Two. Those kids who volunteered lived through the depression,
31:10
Speaker 7: they had nothing, and you know what they did the
31:13
Speaker 7: next day, they went to vote to fight on a
31:16
Speaker 7: vote here I go again to reister to serve. I
31:19
Speaker 7: imagine that their country, they were living on poison food.
31:23
Speaker 7: I mean, they just but they knew they had to
31:26
Speaker 7: defend this great country.
31:27
Speaker 2: Hey, I'll give you one more, Robert. How about the
31:29
Speaker 2: African Americans in World War Two who still volunteered to
31:33
Speaker 2: fight in spite of the fact that they were segregated
31:35
Speaker 2: in the military. How would you like my friend, my
31:38
Speaker 2: dear friend, Laurie Stokes, God bless her. We used to
31:41
Speaker 2: work at Channel seven together, one of my dearest friends.
31:43
Speaker 2: She's phenomenal. Laurie's dad who became a congressman, Congressman Lewis Stokes,
31:48
Speaker 2: And it was just the anniversary of his passing the
31:50
Speaker 2: other day. Congressman Stokes was in the Navy and he
31:54
Speaker 2: was segregated He wasn't allowed to directly face people he
31:59
Speaker 2: served in the mess you have to do it through
32:01
Speaker 2: some back window or something. Yet he still did it.
32:04
Speaker 2: Why because he was proud to be an American. It
32:07
Speaker 2: was more important to him to be an American and
32:08
Speaker 2: even though he was treated with disrespect than to not
32:12
Speaker 2: be an Americans. Your talk about that's commitment. Hello, So
32:17
Speaker 2: these people, God bless them and God rest their souls.
32:20
Speaker 2: These are the great patriots. And unfortunately you have the
32:23
Speaker 2: left being poisoned by communism and socialism from around the world,
32:27
Speaker 2: so that kids are being raised, thanks to the idiots
32:30
Speaker 2: and academia, being raised to hate this country and hate
32:33
Speaker 2: tradition and hate morals. Literally everything we were taught was
32:36
Speaker 2: right is now being told to us as being wrong. Robert.
32:40
Speaker 2: We love when you call my friend. We got to
32:42
Speaker 2: take a break, but thank you so much for calling
32:43
Speaker 2: in on the Mark Simone Show seven ten w R
32:46
Speaker 2: The Voice of New York Partly Cloudy Today, Highzepra seventies,
32:50
Speaker 2: Ken Rozato went from Mark on Your Friday. A little
32:52
Speaker 2: bit later in the show, We're going to talk with

34:27
Speaker 2: And I was on Channel five before that, Channel fifty
34:30
Speaker 2: five before that. I was all over the place. It

Speaker 2: was like, you know, it was like air. Everywhere you look,

34:47
Speaker 2: a streaming TV channel in New Jersey. We'd love you
34:50
Speaker 2: to check it out sometime ONNJ dot com. Well, are
34:52
Speaker 2: you still following everything going on in Iran? Knows we
34:57
Speaker 2: haven't talked about it for a few days. President Trump
35:00
Speaker 2: says that he's launched an economic D Day campaign against Iran,
35:04
Speaker 2: announcing crushing economic operations to force Tehran back to negotiations. Well,
35:09
Speaker 2: he threatened any countries that comes to their aid with
35:13
Speaker 2: massive financial retaliation. The announcement, though, causes spike in oil prices,
35:18
Speaker 2: even though we're supposed to cause loyal prices to come down.
35:21
Speaker 2: Here's Treasury Secretary Scott Besson who talked about it.
35:24
Speaker 6: And we've got a spike in oil prices today that
35:27
Speaker 6: I don't really understand. You know, our announcement is for
35:32
Speaker 6: economics action, and I think that the economic action will
35:37
Speaker 6: mean that oil prices will come down sooner.
35:39
Speaker 2: I think a lot of people I don't know how
35:41
Speaker 2: you feel about this, but I think a lot of
35:43
Speaker 2: people have had it up to here. You know, it's
35:45
Speaker 2: been months now. Initially we thought, oh, we're going to
35:48
Speaker 2: go in one day clean it all out. Boom. Remember
35:52
Speaker 2: when we took out the nuclear stuff. Everybody thought, wow,
35:56
Speaker 2: forty plus years of Iranian nonsense, forty five forty six
36:01
Speaker 2: years of Iranian nonsense from the Ayatola and everything else.
36:05
Speaker 2: And we finally took them out. This is great done.
36:08
Speaker 2: The stock markets saled, oil prices started to come down.
36:12
Speaker 2: It was like ding dong, the witch is dead. We're
36:14
Speaker 2: all happy. And we find out a little while later
36:18
Speaker 2: there's still nuclear dust. We have to clean it. But
36:21
Speaker 2: don't worry about it. It'll take forever for them to
36:23
Speaker 2: find it, let alone us. Don't worry. There's nothing of fear.
36:27
Speaker 2: It's fine. We've knocked out all of their military. Then
36:31
Speaker 2: suddenly the drones started attacking the neighboring countries. Nah, I
36:34
Speaker 2: don't worry about it. Just a few drones left over.
36:37
Speaker 2: We got it. It's all good. Then all of a
36:40
Speaker 2: sudden they started attacking a military basis. Nah, I don't
36:42
Speaker 2: worry about It's just one leftover drunk Listen. I love
36:47
Speaker 2: me my President Trump. I do our big supporter, I
36:50
Speaker 2: acknowledge it, big supporter of President Trump. But I'm with
36:54
Speaker 2: I'm now in that camp where a lot of people
36:57
Speaker 2: are saying, did we have to do this at the time?
37:00
Speaker 2: Time we did? And you could say yeah, because of
37:01
Speaker 2: the nukes they were about to come about? Were they?
37:04
Speaker 2: Are you of the same camp where you're thinking, maybe
37:08
Speaker 2: we should have just waited till the midterms, win the
37:11
Speaker 2: winter in midterms and then go after Iran. If you're
37:14
Speaker 2: going to do that at all, and if you go in,
37:18
Speaker 2: you better go in knowing that you're going to come
37:21
Speaker 2: right out. You better go in knowing that you're going
37:24
Speaker 2: to strategically and surgically take care of what you have
37:27
Speaker 2: to take care of, get it done, and get out.
37:31
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody on the left or the right
37:35
Speaker 2: signed up for something that just keeps going and going. Oh,
37:39
Speaker 2: wait a minute, Ken, Now I'm talking like the right wing.
37:42
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, Ken. World War two lasted years, Vietnam
37:45
Speaker 2: War lasted decades. What are you talking about, Ken? This
37:48
Speaker 2: is only a couple of months. You're right, but it
37:51
Speaker 2: was also a different time. Today, we're doing things more
37:54
Speaker 2: with drones, We're doing things more distant electronically, big aircraft
37:59
Speaker 2: carriers that we didn't do so much with previous wars.
38:03
Speaker 2: So the expectation is we have more intelligence, we should
38:08
Speaker 2: be able to go and take care of things come out.
38:11
Speaker 2: The question is what's going on in Iran? Is Iran
38:15
Speaker 2: working quietly with Russia or China? Is that why this
38:19
Speaker 2: is still lingering? And if so, what do we have
38:22
Speaker 2: to do to stop it? Did we underestimate participation by
38:25
Speaker 2: these other countries. I think a lot of people probably thought,
38:29
Speaker 2: especially in the intelligence community, Russia's probably broke now, and
38:33
Speaker 2: they probably are. You know, Russia at this point has
38:35
Speaker 2: spent so much money on its war against Ukraine, and
38:39
Speaker 2: the US and Europe has been backing Ukraine. So should
38:42
Speaker 2: we be shocked if Russia is backing Iran. I'm amazed
38:48
Speaker 2: by members of our own elected parties on the right,
38:52
Speaker 2: the Republicans, Conservatives, libertarians, who would be stunned at the
38:58
Speaker 2: idea of Russia begin to help Iran when the US
39:02
Speaker 2: and Europe has ostensibly been helping Ukraine. You know, I
39:06
Speaker 2: should say Iran, yes, because we've been helping Ukraine against
39:10
Speaker 2: Russia all this time. So of course Russia's pissed off
39:13
Speaker 2: at US. Of course they'll do something clandestine to help Iran.
39:17
Speaker 2: Why wouldn't they. And China, China wants to be in charge.
39:21
Speaker 2: They want to be the I'm trying to use a
39:24
Speaker 2: term that isn't dirty on the air, the HSIC, the head,
39:29
Speaker 2: you know what, in charge, head in charge. I can't
39:32
Speaker 2: say the word. I just say that, and you know
39:33
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. They want to be in charge of everything.
39:36
Speaker 2: They want to be the big dogs. And so what
39:39
Speaker 2: better way then to make sure that this becomes a
39:41
Speaker 2: war that takes us into oblivion, that gets a democrat
39:45
Speaker 2: Democrat Congress elected, that maybe impeaches the president who has
39:49
Speaker 2: done so much to hurt the Chinese economy. What better
39:53
Speaker 2: way than to do this to quietly back Iran to
39:57
Speaker 2: embarrass President Trump. Of course these other countries are helping,
40:01
Speaker 2: but that's something we should have known, and maybe we did,
40:05
Speaker 2: but we underestimated them. At this point, what do we
40:08
Speaker 2: do about it? And how long are we going to
40:10
Speaker 2: be stuck in this? And will it make us lose
40:13
Speaker 2: the midterms? We lose the midterms. Look, it's all going
40:16
Speaker 2: to be non stomp impeachment all the time. That's all
40:20
Speaker 2: you're gonna hear. Impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment. It's going to
40:24
Speaker 2: be two years of get Trump out, big man, orange
40:27
Speaker 2: man bad, get him out of office. So is this
40:30
Speaker 2: what we want to deal with? I don't know. I
40:32
Speaker 2: think that's even worse than the whole Iran quandary. But
40:35
Speaker 2: we need to finish Iran either, you know what, or
40:38
Speaker 2: get off the pot, mister president. Get this done and
40:42
Speaker 2: this whole big economic thing, you know what, before making
40:46
Speaker 2: the announcement.
40:47
Speaker 8: Just do it.
40:48
Speaker 2: How do you feel? Just do it. Don't make the announcement,
40:53
Speaker 2: Just do it. Don't photograph or I should say megaphone
40:59
Speaker 2: to the universe, this is our plan. We're gonna just
41:02
Speaker 2: do it. If you want to economically cut them off,
41:06
Speaker 2: call all the countries quietly and do it. But stop
41:09
Speaker 2: making the announcement, because every time we make an announcement,
41:12
Speaker 2: it's sort of like it blows up in our faces.
41:14
Speaker 2: And it's starting to get to a point where where
41:16
Speaker 2: we're crying wolf. It's the sky is falling every single day,
41:21
Speaker 2: and I think people are just tired of it. Let
41:23
Speaker 2: me know how you feel about it. Eight hundred three
41:25
Speaker 2: to two one zero seven ten, eight hundred three to
41:28
Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten. It's certainly impacting the polls,
41:32
Speaker 2: and I sure a sec hope it doesn't cost us
41:34
Speaker 2: the midterms, because there was a point and it was
41:35
Speaker 2: looking like we were gonna squeak by that this was
41:38
Speaker 2: not going to be a midterm election when the president
41:41
Speaker 2: and the power of the party in power was going
41:44
Speaker 2: to lose. It looked like we had a chance on
41:46
Speaker 2: the Republican side of keeping both houses, albeit a small chance,
41:50
Speaker 2: but there was a chance of keeping both houses until
41:53
Speaker 2: the whole arm thing just blow up in our faces.
41:56
Speaker 2: So now we have to figure it out, but we'd
41:59
Speaker 2: better figure it out fast. Eight hundred three to two
42:02
Speaker 2: one zero seven ten, eight hundred three to two one
42:05
Speaker 2: zero seven ten. So what do you think about the
42:08
Speaker 2: Dallas Fort Worth International Airport thing that happened last week?
42:11
Speaker 2: Did you hear about this Dallas Fort Worth International Airport?
42:15
Speaker 2: And on the Dallas area, they've had a huge influx
42:19
Speaker 2: of Muslims the whole Central Texas area wherever there's been
42:23
Speaker 2: wide open space, all right, you've had Muslims coming in
42:29
Speaker 2: and look, Muslim Americans. God bless you. Religious group. I
42:32
Speaker 2: used to be a priest years ago. I'm religious. I
42:35
Speaker 2: applaud anyone who's religious until you get to a point
42:38
Speaker 2: where you impose your values on everybody else around you.
42:41
Speaker 2: And by the way, I feel the same way with
42:43
Speaker 2: Catholic groups, Protestant groups. Anyone live and let live in America?
42:47
Speaker 2: All right? When you come here, you should become part
42:51
Speaker 2: of this fabric and this society. So you want to
42:54
Speaker 2: practice your faith, God bless you, Yes, you should. You
42:58
Speaker 2: want to take over six acres of land and make
43:01
Speaker 2: it exclusively something for Muslims and have the call to
43:05
Speaker 2: prayer echoed in the skies for people to hear thousands
43:09
Speaker 2: of miles around. When this is let's just face it,
43:13
Speaker 2: it was founded by Christians with a Christian ideal. All right, now,
43:17
Speaker 2: you say ken separation of church and state, you cannot
43:20
Speaker 2: remove the reality of the fact that this was a Yes,
43:25
Speaker 2: you could say Judeo Christian because by virtue of the
43:27
Speaker 2: word Christian, Christian is Judaeo Christian, because Christianity was set
43:31
Speaker 2: up on the basis of Judaism. For those who don't
43:34
Speaker 2: know that, go back and go back to Catholic school.
43:36
Speaker 2: All my like Italian American Catholic friends who know nothing
43:39
Speaker 2: about their faith because they didn't pay attention growing up,
43:42
Speaker 2: go back and read. You couldn't be Christian if you
43:44
Speaker 2: didn't have Judaism. You couldn't be Catholic if you weren't Christian.
43:47
Speaker 2: You got to figure it out. Figure it out. Do
43:49
Speaker 2: the thinking. Please. It drives me nuts when people say, oh,
43:53
Speaker 2: I'm a Catholic. I don't know, but them Jews. Yeah,
43:55
Speaker 2: you couldn't be Catholic if there wasn't Jews. If there
43:58
Speaker 2: weren't Jews, it's part of the religion. Okay, figure it out.
44:02
Speaker 2: I'm sorry to sound if it sounds condescending. I don't
44:04
Speaker 2: mean to, but it just I'm so fed up at
44:06
Speaker 2: this point for people who don't realize that we come
44:08
Speaker 2: out of Judaism that it's like, how do you not
44:10
Speaker 2: know this? At this point, Judaism is the mother religion
44:12
Speaker 2: of even Islam ostensibly. But when you look at folks
44:20
Speaker 2: coming over whenever you have groups of people coming over
44:22
Speaker 2: in moss, instead of integrating, instead of becoming part of
44:27
Speaker 2: the fabric, what ends up happening is they kind of
44:29
Speaker 2: create a bubble and isolated bubble and they try to
44:33
Speaker 2: change the area around them to be them as opposed
44:37
Speaker 2: to them integrating into society around them. And this is
44:40
Speaker 2: the case when you have all the Muslims coming into
44:43
Speaker 2: Central Texas, all living in the same area, all going
44:47
Speaker 2: to their giant mosque that they're building. Now they're building
44:50
Speaker 2: an Islamic center in Central Texas. It's going to be
44:52
Speaker 2: one of the biggest in the country. And what ends
44:55
Speaker 2: up happening is then they run for elective office and
44:57
Speaker 2: it becomes an all Islamic state within it. State did
45:01
Speaker 2: the same thing in Dearborn, Michigan. They're doing the same
45:04
Speaker 2: thing in parts of northern New Jersey where you go
45:07
Speaker 2: into parts of like Passaic and Patterson in the areas
45:10
Speaker 2: where you say, okay, are we still in the United States.
45:13
Speaker 2: That doesn't mean we don't love you and don't welcome
45:16
Speaker 2: Muslim America. I have lots of friends. I have a
45:18
Speaker 2: friend who's in his mom. We have lots of friends
45:20
Speaker 2: who are Muslim. God bless you, and I love you.
45:23
Speaker 2: I don't care. I'm not anti Islam at all. I
45:26
Speaker 2: am anti converting the world. You will do you and
45:31
Speaker 2: let me do me, and we love and respect each
45:34
Speaker 2: other for our differences. But when you get to a
45:37
Speaker 2: point where you say, you know, Ken, we need to talk,
45:41
Speaker 2: and if you don't want to do it our way,
45:42
Speaker 2: then we got a problem. Eh. That's when you cross
45:45
Speaker 2: the line. Ken, we don't do that. Yeah, go back
45:48
Speaker 2: over the last fifteen hundred years. Yeah you kind of do. Yeah,
45:51
Speaker 2: you kind of do. It's happened in every country. I mean,
45:53
Speaker 2: look what's happening right now, and say you to Spain,
45:56
Speaker 2: this is what you've done, and people saying, Ken, that
45:58
Speaker 2: was just one case of a bunch of migrants trying
46:01
Speaker 2: to get into a place to live a better life. Really, really,
46:05
Speaker 2: they're surrounded by twenty Muslim countries and yet you had
46:09
Speaker 2: eighty thousand young military age men, not women, not children,
46:14
Speaker 2: just twenty something year old military age men all invading
46:19
Speaker 2: little city state that has for fifteen hundred years been
46:23
Speaker 2: part of Spain. And you're all Muslim and they're a
46:28
Speaker 2: tiny group of by the way, Muslims and Christians who
46:31
Speaker 2: live in Saeyuta. There are plenty of Muslims there. They
46:34
Speaker 2: do live and let live. It's fine. Just like in Israel.
46:38
Speaker 2: You have hundreds of thousands of Arabs who live in Israel,
46:42
Speaker 2: who are you know, on their Knesset, and they're allowed
46:45
Speaker 2: to live in a live they can live. It's when
46:47
Speaker 2: the Arabs come in from the outside and say no,
46:49
Speaker 2: now we will conquer you and you have to do
46:51
Speaker 2: it our way, and we're taking over Jerusalem, that's when
46:54
Speaker 2: you have a problem. And the same thing in Sayouta,
46:58
Speaker 2: when you have eighty thousand people suddenly come in and say, oh,
47:01
Speaker 2: we're going to take over. Well, that's when Spain has
47:03
Speaker 2: to send in the military and say no. And by
47:05
Speaker 2: the way, Morocco has done this to Spanish territories that
47:10
Speaker 2: they've had for a thousand years. In northern Africa, it's
47:13
Speaker 2: been part of Spain and one after another. You've had
47:18
Speaker 2: little city states within that have fallen to Morocco. Morocco
47:22
Speaker 2: decides one day to call out the military and take over,
47:26
Speaker 2: and guess what, within a couple of months it's theirs
47:29
Speaker 2: and Spain has just you know, clapped their hands and said, okay,
47:31
Speaker 2: that's another one. We just lost to Morocco because they
47:34
Speaker 2: don't want to repeat of what happened. It's fifteen hundred
47:37
Speaker 2: years ago and a thousand years ago. For those who
47:39
Speaker 2: don't know their geographical history, Spain, Portugal, parts of southern Italy,
47:46
Speaker 2: you know in Sicily and Naples, you know, you Ciciaiani
47:50
Speaker 2: and Napolitani. You know that you were all at one
47:53
Speaker 2: point controlled by Spain, and prior to that you were
47:57
Speaker 2: oh actually at the time you were controlled by Morocco,
48:00
Speaker 2: and most of the people there, your ancestors were Muslims.
48:03
Speaker 2: I don't know if you know that, not Merizotto watch
48:06
Speaker 2: them mouth. Yeah, yeah, that's a fact that all of
48:10
Speaker 2: southern Italy and Spain and Portugal and even parts of
48:14
Speaker 2: southern France were actually all controlled by the Moors as
48:18
Speaker 2: they were called the Moroccans, the Moors. They were all
48:21
Speaker 2: Islamic and there were the battles and the Crusaans, and
48:25
Speaker 2: we fought and that got it back and made a
48:27
Speaker 2: Christian again. But that at one point was all Muslim.
48:31
Speaker 2: And it looks like it's going right back the way
48:34
Speaker 2: it was. The pendulum is swinging right back because whenever
48:38
Speaker 2: there is a void something and someone will fill that void.
48:43
Speaker 2: That happens through history. And right now the void is
48:47
Speaker 2: Christianity going away. It's religion because Christians, Eh, they're not
48:53
Speaker 2: interested anymore. Hey, they got liberal and they decided we
48:56
Speaker 2: don't need to go to church. And eh, I'm spiritual,
48:59
Speaker 2: not religious. I'm spiritual. I just think we all do
49:03
Speaker 2: good and we believe in God and we'll just be fine.
49:06
Speaker 2: The problem is other people don't think that liberally about it.
49:10
Speaker 2: You have serious, hardcore conservative religious people, whether they be
49:14
Speaker 2: Islamic or even certain hardcore Christian groups Orthodox severe I'm
49:20
Speaker 2: talking about, you know, and boy, this sounds pejorative. I
49:24
Speaker 2: don't mean it this way, but you have some significant
49:29
Speaker 2: Orthodox Judaism who it's all about taking over an area
49:33
Speaker 2: and converting everybody. You know, Jews don't convert. They don't
49:36
Speaker 2: usually it's usually what you're born into. But in the
49:38
Speaker 2: case of Islam, and like in case of I know
49:41
Speaker 2: friends who are Mormon, friends who are Jehovah Is. It's
49:44
Speaker 2: about getting everybody else to be part of your group.
49:47
Speaker 2: It's evangelizing. And they'll say, but it's biblical ken to evangelize. Yeah,
49:51
Speaker 2: but in modern America we don't push like that. That's
49:55
Speaker 2: not the way it works here. Maybe in other places
49:57
Speaker 2: it does. But the point is be because of the
50:00
Speaker 2: vacuum in religion in Europe. Right now you see Europe
50:04
Speaker 2: literally falling before our eyes and turning back into a
50:09
Speaker 2: Muslim state. Both for right now it's people moving in
50:13
Speaker 2: from Muslim countries, but eventually it'll be people being converted
50:17
Speaker 2: sort of by force. It'll be the popular thing to
50:21
Speaker 2: be Muslim. If you want to be in business in
50:24
Speaker 2: certain Spanish cities, you better be Muslim or else you're
50:27
Speaker 2: not gonna You're not gonna be on the board of
50:28
Speaker 2: this and the board of that. That's sort of what's
50:30
Speaker 2: gonna happen little by little, and you'll have people initially
50:33
Speaker 2: I'm just Muslim because that's how we get along, and
50:36
Speaker 2: I go to mosque every now and then to be
50:37
Speaker 2: seen and blah blah blah. Before you know it it's
50:40
Speaker 2: gonna be generation after generation and you will see Europe
50:43
Speaker 2: convert again. This is what is happening before our eyes.
50:46
Speaker 2: And it all stems with I'm really not religious. I'm
50:49
Speaker 2: just I'm spiritual. I'm living. Let live. We don't really
50:53
Speaker 2: belong to a faith. That's where it starts. Now, Am
50:56
Speaker 2: I saying that the only solution is we all have
50:58
Speaker 2: to become diehard? What picked your Christian religion maybe, or
51:05
Speaker 2: pick your Jewish, your sector section of Judaism maybe? But
51:09
Speaker 2: what I am saying is, at the very least, if
51:11
Speaker 2: you're going to not be religious, just beware that somebody
51:15
Speaker 2: else will be. Seven ten WR, The Voice of New York.

Speaker 2: going to be with you on a Friday. Go straight
51:39
Speaker 2: to our busy phones at ten twenty eight. Chris and
51:42
Speaker 2: Beth Page, Long Island, how did you fare with the
51:44
Speaker 2: weather Chris.
51:46
Speaker 13: Uh, okay, you know a little dicey, but uh, okay,
51:50
Speaker 13: you know I was watching it and you know, make
51:52
Speaker 13: sure my whole family was home and uh not bad.
51:55
Speaker 13: Beth Page is kind of in the middle. They got
51:57
Speaker 13: killed down on the South Shore Atlantic piece.
51:59
Speaker 2: We did, sure, so that's not what you called about.
52:02
Speaker 2: I decided to ask while I had you good morning
52:05
Speaker 2: to know I made that.
52:06
Speaker 13: Okay, but thanks for asking, so any I can. The
52:08
Speaker 13: reason I'm calling is I really got to disagree with you, Okay.
52:11
Speaker 13: I've heard a lot of my friends that have said
52:14
Speaker 13: similar things about, you know, what is Trump doing with Iran?
52:18
Speaker 13: And he should have? You know, the midterms. Let me
52:20
Speaker 13: tell you something. I followed Calshi Markets. You know, there
52:24
Speaker 13: are sights that show the odds of doing some winning
52:27
Speaker 13: something and you can gamble on them. I've been following
52:29
Speaker 13: since January. As far as the midterms and the Senate, Okay,
52:33
Speaker 13: you know, it's always been about eighty percent favorite. The
52:37
Speaker 13: Dems were going to win long before Iran. I'm just
52:39
Speaker 13: telling you that we went in on February twenty eighth, Okay,
52:43
Speaker 13: so it was never going our way. I'm just going back.
52:46
Speaker 2: I got it back. I don't let you continue talking.
52:48
Speaker 2: I'm not going to cut you up, okay, But there
52:51
Speaker 2: have been several national polls that showed just the opposite Calcie. Remember,
52:55
Speaker 2: is this small subset of people who like to gamble,
52:57
Speaker 2: people who like to buy lottery gamble. They're the ones
53:00
Speaker 2: who go to cal She. And it's it's like ninety male,
53:03
Speaker 2: ten percent females. There's a very different different demographics to
53:08
Speaker 2: call She. That's not the call She's been right on
53:10
Speaker 2: a lot of things, but when it comes to that,
53:12
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily buy call She. It's the it's the
53:15
Speaker 2: momentary pulse, like that moment of a subset of opinion
53:20
Speaker 2: that that goes on cal She. But you know, there
53:22
Speaker 2: were polls that showed that as the economy was turning,
53:25
Speaker 2: as oil was dropping oil prices, things were starting to
53:29
Speaker 2: look like even if we were to lose, it would
53:31
Speaker 2: be right down to the line. Now it's looking like
53:34
Speaker 2: a landslide for the Democrats. So that's where I politely disagree.
53:38
Speaker 2: I part ways with you on that, but please continue,
53:40
Speaker 2: go ahead, Chris.
53:41
Speaker 13: All right, And then I got to push back in you.
53:43
Speaker 13: It's either way, it's not going to be a landslide. Okay,
53:46
Speaker 13: because do you know how many literally houses seats are
53:50
Speaker 13: up for you know, there's not that many. It's it's
53:52
Speaker 13: it's very and we have.
53:54
Speaker 2: A every every house seat is every house seat? Is
53:58
Speaker 2: you mean you mean which one might might change? You
54:00
Speaker 2: mean which one might flip? You mean it?
54:02
Speaker 13: You know what I mean?
54:03
Speaker 2: Right now?
54:03
Speaker 13: Yeah, And it's it's been a very narrow amount because
54:08
Speaker 13: I've been following this, Ken, I'm just saying I've been
54:11
Speaker 13: following this and the fact that this whole Iran thing
54:14
Speaker 13: is ruining it. It's just I'm glad Trump didn't like
54:18
Speaker 13: this is the reason I called I'm glad Trump did
54:21
Speaker 13: what he did when he did it, okay, because I
54:23
Speaker 13: don't think you should ever worry about, oh, we're going
54:26
Speaker 13: to lose the midterms if I don't do this, let
54:28
Speaker 13: me do it after the midterms. And I've heard him
54:31
Speaker 13: in interviews. We disagree here he says we're much closer,
54:35
Speaker 13: and you you kind of pur put it. You're like,
54:38
Speaker 13: I ran, there were they really going to get one?
54:41
Speaker 13: He had information that they were. I'm glad he went
54:43
Speaker 13: in when he did. I was so happy on February
54:46
Speaker 13: twenty eighth and just let the court let things go
54:49
Speaker 13: where they may. I'm not critical at all of what
54:52
Speaker 13: he's doing to Iran. Every day that he goes after
54:54
Speaker 13: them is a good day, and I don't care if
54:56
Speaker 13: he does it before the midterms or after the midterms.
54:59
Speaker 13: They're clear the number one problem in this world, Chris.
55:02
Speaker 2: Remember, Remember we had absolute, die hard information that we
55:07
Speaker 2: had weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Die absolutely die
55:11
Speaker 2: we and I was the biggest defender of going in.
55:15
Speaker 2: We had absolute information and then we found some chemicals
55:19
Speaker 2: on the side of the road. But it turns out
55:21
Speaker 2: that wasn't even true. None of it was true our information.
55:24
Speaker 2: Either the information was wrong or it was intentionally wrong
55:27
Speaker 2: because they wanted you know, they talk about it. You
55:29
Speaker 2: get the conspiracy theorists and the military industrial complex and
55:34
Speaker 2: the money that's made and everything else. That's a whole
55:36
Speaker 2: other argument for another day. The point is, the point
55:38
Speaker 2: is in and we got it. We have to go
55:40
Speaker 2: to the news, so finish.
55:41
Speaker 7: I let you go.
55:42
Speaker 13: But ken Israel got us this information. We haven't lost
55:46
Speaker 13: that many soldier's Okay, so much different from the Iraq war.
55:49
Speaker 3: That was so different.
55:52
Speaker 13: Israel got us this information.
55:54
Speaker 8: We went in.
55:55
Speaker 13: How did we kill forty of their leaders. By the way,
55:58
Speaker 13: just think of that that we killed.
56:00
Speaker 2: Actually, you know how honestly, you know you know how right?
56:04
Speaker 2: Did you know? How?
56:05
Speaker 3: Yeah?
56:05
Speaker 2: They we set up. We set up the cameras. They
56:07
Speaker 2: literally their their cameras that like we have the cameras
56:11
Speaker 2: and the traffic and everything else. We actually watched their
56:14
Speaker 2: limos going into a meeting. That's how we killed most
56:18
Speaker 2: of them. We watched their cars, We saw the license
56:21
Speaker 2: plates as each limo pulled into a building for a meeting.
56:24
Speaker 2: We bombed the building. That's how they killed most. So
56:26
Speaker 2: it's not that they went to their individual houses at
56:28
Speaker 2: specific dimes and took them out. It was brilliant, it't,
56:31
Speaker 2: got me wrong, But it was a lot more one shot,
56:34
Speaker 2: one time killed them all than people realize.
56:38
Speaker 13: Well, look at the information we had, That's what I'm saying.
56:40
Speaker 13: You can't compare it to what.
56:41
Speaker 2: Well that was that was online. It was it was
56:43
Speaker 2: literally on the internet for anybody to glean and we
56:46
Speaker 2: just some somebody said, hey, you realize all their traffic
56:49
Speaker 2: cams are online just like ours. I mean, God forbid
56:51
Speaker 2: the same the same could happen us. We better be
56:53
Speaker 2: very careful and.
56:55
Speaker 13: You don't think I ran was close to getting a
56:57
Speaker 13: nuclear weapon.
56:57
Speaker 7: That's just no.
56:58
Speaker 2: I do think. But the question, remember two years ago
57:01
Speaker 2: we said they were right on the verge, and they weren't.
57:03
Speaker 2: It took two years. So were they like tomorrow gonna
57:05
Speaker 2: have a nuclear weapon? Maybe they were. But the fact is,
57:08
Speaker 2: if we had this much information that we could go
57:10
Speaker 2: in and knock them out in a day, then we
57:12
Speaker 2: could have waited two more weeks and knock them out
57:14
Speaker 2: in a day, or three more months and knock them
57:16
Speaker 2: out in the day. That's the point I'm trying to make.
57:19
Speaker 2: And I listen. I don't say you're wrong. I could
57:21
Speaker 2: be totally wrong, Chris. I just hope and keep our
57:24
Speaker 2: fingers crossed. Things don't turn entirely against this in the fall.
57:27
Speaker 2: I think we're both on the same page, just with
57:29
Speaker 2: tiny differences. It's like we're brothers who both love Mom,
57:32
Speaker 2: only we love her in a slightly different way. That's
57:35
Speaker 2: all Chris and Bethpage. I appreciate that phone. They're always
57:38
Speaker 2: please call back anytime.
57:40
Speaker 1: This is the Mark Simone Show on seven to ten.
57:43
Speaker 1: WI Ken from today, Here's Ken, Rosanna and.
57:48
Speaker 2: So good to be with you. On a Friday, after
57:50
Speaker 2: all that nasty weather we had yesterday. Fortunately, today's not
57:54
Speaker 2: gonna be anything like yesterday, mixed clouds and sun and
57:58
Speaker 2: race Stagic saying it's gonna be pro probably close to
58:00
Speaker 2: eighty degrees for most of the area. So enjoy it
58:04
Speaker 2: because we're going to get some more cloudy weather, maybe
58:06
Speaker 2: some stormy weather again over parts of the weekend. So
58:09
Speaker 2: it's not going to be the greatest getaway weekend. But
58:11
Speaker 2: you know what that means when it's a nasty weather weekend,
58:15
Speaker 2: it means it's perfect time to go to the movies.
58:18
Speaker 2: So you know who knows more about movies than anybody
58:20
Speaker 2: on earth that I know? It is Roger Friedman of
58:23
Speaker 2: Showbiz four one one, and he is on the line.
58:26
Speaker 2: Look at that. Good morning, Roger, good morning.
58:29
Speaker 14: How are you ken?
58:30
Speaker 2: You know, it's amazing. How do you know to call
58:32
Speaker 2: when I start talking about what to do on the weekend?
58:34
Speaker 2: And it's just amazing. It's like we are connected somewhere.
58:37
Speaker 2: Feeling that is well, It's what I said is true, though,
58:40
Speaker 2: there is nobody who knows about movies more than you, sir.
58:43
Speaker 2: So Spider Man brand New Day out of control, already
58:48
Speaker 2: broken the eight hundred million dollar mark in the US
58:51
Speaker 2: two billion insanity? So should people.
58:55
Speaker 3: Still see it?
58:55
Speaker 2: Should people still go see it? Even if they saw work?
59:00
Speaker 14: Oh, I think they've seen it three or four times
59:01
Speaker 14: I get to this point. Yeah, But it's a lot
59:04
Speaker 14: of fun. It's very well made. You know, the action
59:09
Speaker 14: sequences are terrific, and it answers the questions from the
59:12
Speaker 14: last movie when Peter Parker's friends no longer remembered him
59:17
Speaker 14: and Sony remembered him, and that's the main thing. And
59:22
Speaker 14: you know, it's just huge. And I think there'll be
59:25
Speaker 14: one more of these with Tom Holland and Sendeia and
59:29
Speaker 14: then they'll they'll bring it to an end. But it's
59:33
Speaker 14: it's incredible that I think there have been nine Spider
59:37
Speaker 14: Man movies now, which is, you know, since the beginning,
59:40
Speaker 14: over twenty years. And who would have thought? Who would
59:42
Speaker 14: have thought it? When I was buying Spider Man comics
59:45
Speaker 14: for twelve cents, you know every month. I never would
59:49
Speaker 14: have said to myself, one day this will be you know,
59:52
Speaker 14: a gazillion dollar industry. But it really, it really has
59:56
Speaker 14: turned out to be a fantastic success.
59:58
Speaker 2: Would let me ask you this, if somebody hasn't seen
1:00:01
Speaker 2: any of the recent films. Can they see this as
1:00:03
Speaker 2: a standalone.
1:00:05
Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, you could see this as a standalone movie
1:00:08
Speaker 14: because they tell you right at the beginning sort of
1:00:12
Speaker 14: what happened in the last one. I mean, it would
1:00:14
Speaker 14: be good to see the last one because it was
1:00:16
Speaker 14: fun and you could see, you know, the last three
1:00:20
Speaker 14: if you wanted to. But this one you could just
1:00:22
Speaker 14: go into and you can get it. I mean, it's
1:00:24
Speaker 14: Spider Man. It's not Macbeth.
1:00:27
Speaker 7: You know you can.
1:00:30
Speaker 14: By now, Spider Man has become our Macbeth. I mean
1:00:33
Speaker 14: in a strange way, it's become like our Shakespeare because
1:00:37
Speaker 14: it's just it's like endless. But these all these franchises,
1:00:40
Speaker 14: like the Marvel franchise, the DC Contexts, Star Wars of
1:00:46
Speaker 14: the Star Trek, these have become sort of the literature
1:00:49
Speaker 14: of this generation. Very weird, but it's taken off you know,
1:00:55
Speaker 14: my My movie literature, by the way, is Whatoody Allen
1:01:00
Speaker 14: and I just announced this morning that he's going to
1:01:02
Speaker 14: shoot his fifty first movie this fall in Spain. Wow,
1:01:07
Speaker 14: he's going to be ninety one at the end of November.
1:01:11
Speaker 14: I just, I just I was just told that he's
1:01:15
Speaker 14: shooting his fifty first movie in Madrid, and don't know
1:01:18
Speaker 14: who the cast is yet. He's also apparently been finishing
1:01:23
Speaker 14: up a new novel, a second novel, and a play
1:01:25
Speaker 14: for the stage. So that's incredible to me. He's our Shakespeare.
1:01:31
Speaker 14: But maybe he'll put Spider Man in the movie.
1:01:34
Speaker 3: I don't know.
1:01:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, right now, Wait a second, Woody Allen, you're saying
1:01:38
Speaker 2: that he is more of a favorite when it comes
1:01:40
Speaker 2: to movies than Madonna is.
1:01:41
Speaker 14: To you, Madonna, this is the funniest thing, isn't it.
1:01:46
Speaker 14: The Criterion Channel, which is, like, you know, it's supposed
1:01:51
Speaker 14: to be an intellectual channel for great film buffs. They're
1:01:54
Speaker 14: going to do a retrospective of three Madonna movies this
1:01:58
Speaker 14: fall this fall, and she's the worst actress ever in films.
1:02:06
Speaker 14: And the only movie that she made really that was
1:02:08
Speaker 14: of any interest was Desperately Seeking Susan, which was, you know,
1:02:11
Speaker 14: forty years ago, and that was because of Rosanna Arquette
1:02:15
Speaker 14: and because of the director, Susan Seidelman, who was so great.
1:02:20
Speaker 14: But outside of that, Madonna is that, you know, she's
1:02:22
Speaker 14: a great personality and a great performer, but she's a
1:02:25
Speaker 14: terrible actress. Nevertheless, two of her besides desperately seeking Susan.
1:02:32
Speaker 14: Two of her worst movies are going to be part
1:02:35
Speaker 14: of the Criterion Channel next month. I don't get it,
1:02:40
Speaker 14: but it should be.
1:02:42
Speaker 2: It should be amusing, it should be indeed all right.
1:02:44
Speaker 2: Zevnded Wy the voice of New York Ken Rosatto in
1:02:47
Speaker 2: from mark on a Friday, speaking with the great Roger
1:02:49
Speaker 2: Friedman of Showbiz for one One can check it out
1:02:52
Speaker 2: at showbizore one one dot com. Before I let you go,
1:02:55
Speaker 2: we got to talk about two things. Of course. The
1:02:58
Speaker 2: Odyssey is at the half billion dollar, still a great
1:03:00
Speaker 2: film and doing well. And Anne Hathaway. If I need
1:03:03
Speaker 2: to buy a lottery ticket, I'm asking Anne Hathaway because
1:03:06
Speaker 2: she knows how to pick them. Three superstar Powerhouse scripts.
1:03:12
Speaker 14: She's got a horror movie called The End of Oak
1:03:15
Speaker 14: Street that people seem to like.
1:03:17
Speaker 3: I haven't seen it.
1:03:19
Speaker 14: And then she had The Devilwares Proud of Too earlier
1:03:21
Speaker 14: in the spring. And she's the star of the Odyssey.
1:03:25
Speaker 14: She's going to get an Oscar nomination. The Odyssey is
1:03:28
Speaker 14: going to get like fifteen Oscar nominations. I can't imagine
1:03:32
Speaker 14: any other film coming out between now and the end
1:03:34
Speaker 14: of the year that will match it in any way.
1:03:36
Speaker 14: So we know the Odyssey is going to be crowned
1:03:39
Speaker 14: next March with all kinds of awards. And I wanted
1:03:43
Speaker 14: to tell you about one other little film that's playing
1:03:45
Speaker 14: in New York if you can find it. It's called
1:03:47
Speaker 14: Late Fame and it stars Willem Dafoe and I love
1:03:51
Speaker 14: this film and I'd like people to see it if
1:03:53
Speaker 14: they can. And it's a real independent film, but it's
1:03:55
Speaker 14: beautifully done, and I think if you're a real film person,
1:03:59
Speaker 14: you'd you'd enjoy it.
1:04:01
Speaker 2: I love it, and I'm tired of people calling him
1:04:03
Speaker 2: William de Faue. By the way, if I hear it
1:04:04
Speaker 2: one more time, I'm going to bite my cheekins. And
1:04:10
Speaker 2: he's born here.
1:04:11
Speaker 14: I've never heard anyone call him billy.
1:04:15
Speaker 2: I've had somebody a conversation. I only know this stuff
1:04:18
Speaker 2: only because I went to NYU Film School, right to
1:04:20
Speaker 2: this school, and I remember having this intellectual conversation with
1:04:23
Speaker 2: somebody and they said, well, you know, when he was
1:04:25
Speaker 2: born in Germany, I said, isn't American? What do you mean?
1:04:27
Speaker 2: Born in Germany? Film the Foe was born here. He's
1:04:30
Speaker 2: like as American as us. Uh, totally one hundred percent,
1:04:33
Speaker 2: just one last thing before I let you go. Roger
1:04:35
Speaker 2: Chris Rock, whom I love. I love Chris Rock, brilliant guy.
1:04:40
Speaker 2: Uh his cousin, April Rock, could become an SNL.
1:04:45
Speaker 3: She might be.
1:04:46
Speaker 14: They're they're making the decisions right now about the You know,
1:04:50
Speaker 14: some people have left SNL as always happens, and they'll
1:04:54
Speaker 14: be adding a couple of new young people. And they've
1:04:56
Speaker 14: been looking for a young black female comic. They I
1:05:00
Speaker 14: haven't really had one since Ego Neodam, who I loved.
1:05:05
Speaker 14: She left a couple last year in twenty twenty five.
1:05:08
Speaker 14: And so yeah, this April Rock, who's I have her
1:05:11
Speaker 14: videos up on the site on showbiz for on one.
1:05:13
Speaker 14: She's terrific and she's I think she's Chris's first or
1:05:16
Speaker 14: second cousin. And she's not an EPO baby. She's funny
1:05:21
Speaker 14: on her own, very talented, and she may be who knows,
1:05:24
Speaker 14: she may be one of the next people to join
1:05:27
Speaker 14: the SNL cast.
1:05:28
Speaker 2: She has one tenth the talent of Chris Rock. Then
1:05:30
Speaker 2: we're in for something very special because Chris Rock is
1:05:33
Speaker 2: just a brilliant, brilliant person and.
1:05:35
Speaker 14: He has By the way, Chris Rock has a great
1:05:37
Speaker 14: movie coming out this fall. I can't remember the name

1:06:32
Speaker 2: You know, when I was a Channel seven, Chris used
1:06:34
Speaker 2: to have an apartment on the Upper West Uh when
1:06:37
Speaker 2: he I guess during the week. If he was doing
1:06:38
Speaker 2: anything in Manhattan, he would stay at his apartment and
1:06:41
Speaker 2: then he lived over and I think Alpine at the
1:06:44
Speaker 2: time when he was married, and but he would pop
1:06:46
Speaker 2: by the studios and he would wave into the window.
1:06:49
Speaker 2: He and Laurie Stokes, my go anchor at the time,
1:06:51
Speaker 2: they were friends. He would wave in and I say,
1:06:53
Speaker 2: that's Chris Rock and you know, we'd be on the
1:06:55
Speaker 2: air talk about getting distracted while you're doing the news.
1:06:58
Speaker 2: It was pretty cool, cool, very nice man. The few

1:07:42
Speaker 2: Not a bad day at all. After all the stormy
1:07:43
Speaker 2: weather we had yesterday, today's going to be partly cloudy.
1:07:46
Speaker 2: High's near eighty degrees. We go to our busy phones
1:07:49
Speaker 2: right now, Carlos and Union, New Jersey.
1:07:51
Speaker 7: Good morning, Hey, Ken, how are you okay? The Muslims,
1:07:57
Speaker 7: as you know, in California unless the superintend they got
1:08:00
Speaker 7: paid off. I don't know where she was. There was
1:08:02
Speaker 7: a school trip was at the parents' consent, and these
1:08:05
Speaker 7: students were taken to a mosque and they were getting
1:08:08
Speaker 7: up this phony book to Koran and the women had
1:08:11
Speaker 7: this thing over the head. I mean, the thing is
1:08:13
Speaker 7: this like you mentioned before. I mean, don't come here
1:08:16
Speaker 7: trying to indoctorate our country found it on Christian biblical principles.
1:08:22
Speaker 7: And I don't know. I mean to me, I have
1:08:25
Speaker 7: nothing against anybody, but these people, you know, mostly they
1:08:28
Speaker 7: should go back to the country. You know what, practice
1:08:30
Speaker 7: what you believe, but don't bring it over here.
1:08:33
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, the school you're talking about, I remember hearing
1:08:35
Speaker 2: the story. It happened in the fall and it was
1:08:37
Speaker 2: at Palo Alto High School's Social Justice Pathway. So that's
1:08:41
Speaker 2: you're talking about up in the area. And you're closer
1:08:43
Speaker 2: to San Francisco where they happened to be to the
1:08:44
Speaker 2: left of mouth, say tongue. And yes, the kids went
1:08:47
Speaker 2: on this was a public school. They went on a
1:08:49
Speaker 2: field trip to a mosque. So you got to scratch
1:08:52
Speaker 2: your head because you would never have a field trip
1:08:54
Speaker 2: to a Catholic church or a field trip to a
1:08:55
Speaker 2: Protestant church or whatever, or to a temple. But yet
1:08:58
Speaker 2: they had a field trip to a mosque. If you're
1:09:01
Speaker 2: gonna do it for one, you gotta do it for all.
1:09:03
Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with doing it for all,
1:09:05
Speaker 2: but you can't just do it for one and then
1:09:07
Speaker 2: make that the official kind of the state message, because
1:09:10
Speaker 2: that's when you get into trouble. Thank you so much
1:09:12
Speaker 2: for the call, Carlos. We appreciate it. Seven to ten
1:09:14
Speaker 2: wor Ken Rosotto and for Mark now.
1:09:17
Speaker 1: The Mark Simone show on seven ten wor filling in
1:09:21
Speaker 1: for Mark.
1:09:22
Speaker 2: Here's Ken Rosatto. It's so nice to meak with you
1:09:25
Speaker 2: out of Friday. How did you fare with the nasty
1:09:28
Speaker 2: weather yesterday?
1:09:29
Speaker 8: Man?
1:09:29
Speaker 2: There were times when I looked outside and I saw
1:09:32
Speaker 2: the rain coming down in just sheets, and then other
1:09:36
Speaker 2: times it was just a drizzle. But yeah, a lot
1:09:38
Speaker 2: of parts of our tri state were really seriously, seriously hit.
1:09:43
Speaker 2: And of course parts of southwestern Nassau County along the
1:09:46
Speaker 2: Queen's border by Atlantic Beach, that area, they got hit
1:09:50
Speaker 2: with a tornado. It's been confirmed it started out as
1:09:53
Speaker 2: a water spout, so it wasn't super strong. But hey,
1:09:55
Speaker 2: any tornado, even an EF zero, is still strong. You
1:09:58
Speaker 2: gotta be careful of it. Here was some sat of
1:10:01
Speaker 2: some people reacting to it.
1:10:02
Speaker 14: Holy, this is a tornado.
1:10:05
Speaker 10: Wow.
1:10:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and it's kind of shocking, right. We don't
1:10:09
Speaker 2: usually see tornadoes in the northeast. Of course, again, the
1:10:12
Speaker 2: tornadoes we get are nowhere near like the tornadoes in
1:10:15
Speaker 2: the Midwest. Those are EF three's, fours fives. But like
1:10:19
Speaker 2: I said, any tornado is not safe. We had more
1:10:23
Speaker 2: flash flooding than anything else, like in parts of Queens
1:10:26
Speaker 2: and even parts of coastal New Jersey.
1:10:27
Speaker 4: This was Queens every time with t other storms. I
1:10:29
Speaker 4: run home from work like wondering, hey, am I gonna
1:10:32
Speaker 4: make it back safe? Twice this year, once last October
1:10:36
Speaker 4: during Halloween. Three times within the span of not even
1:10:39
Speaker 4: one year.
1:10:39
Speaker 2: Man, there were cars that were totally flooded everywhere you went.
1:10:42
Speaker 5: We couldn't get that tor tuck all. So everyone was
1:10:45
Speaker 5: declining because of the weather because they had too much
1:10:48
Speaker 5: going on.
1:10:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's hard. It was a tough, tough commute. Remember,
1:10:52
Speaker 2: if ever you see standing water in the street, the
1:10:55
Speaker 2: old saying is turn around, don't drown, and it's the truth,
1:10:58
Speaker 2: because you need is like six to eight inches of
1:11:01
Speaker 2: standing water, and depending on the weight of your car,
1:11:04
Speaker 2: you could you could literally start floating because the tires
1:11:07
Speaker 2: are made of air and depending on the weight. As
1:11:10
Speaker 2: I mentioned, a giant truck is not going to float
1:11:12
Speaker 2: away necessarily in six inches of water, but you know,
1:11:16
Speaker 2: you can get maybe a foot of water could make
1:11:18
Speaker 2: a small truck float. So you've got to be very careful.
1:11:21
Speaker 2: If you're not sure, you don't know how deep things are.
1:11:23
Speaker 2: Turn around. It's just safer at worsh you'll get a
1:11:26
Speaker 2: beat from the guy behind you. But you know, I mean,
1:11:29
Speaker 2: if you keep going forward, it could be tragic. So
1:11:32
Speaker 2: you don't want to deal with that. Seven ten wo
1:11:35
Speaker 2: r the Voice of New York. This is Ken Rosetto
1:11:38
Speaker 2: and for the great Mark Simone, who has a nice
1:11:41
Speaker 2: long weekend today. Mark, I hope you're enjoying yourself, buddy,
1:11:44
Speaker 2: and we got a lot to talk about. Phone lines
1:11:46
Speaker 2: are open. Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
1:11:50
Speaker 2: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. I don't
1:11:54
Speaker 2: know if you guys heard this story about a Seattle
1:11:57
Speaker 2: nonprofit that is called We Heart See they're now facing
1:12:02
Speaker 2: a Washington State investigation. Or well, let me back up
1:12:06
Speaker 2: and say this, only on the left coast would they
1:12:10
Speaker 2: be this insane. As liberal as things are and people
1:12:13
Speaker 2: are in New York, we have a Democratic Socialist as
1:12:17
Speaker 2: mayor in New York City. Things are nuts here, but
1:12:20
Speaker 2: you still have enough sane people here to kind of
1:12:22
Speaker 2: right the ship when it starts to flip. On the
1:12:25
Speaker 2: West coast, they have just lost their freaking minds. They're insane.
1:12:31
Speaker 2: So just follow this. You know, Seattle, they just elected
1:12:34
Speaker 2: a woman who looks like she's certifiably insane. She just
1:12:37
Speaker 2: looks like she's out to lunch. Who is the mayor?
1:12:41
Speaker 2: A woman who was in her thirties, never worked a
1:12:43
Speaker 2: wheel job her entire life, literally survived I think your
1:12:48
Speaker 2: parents are from New Jersey, if I'm correct. I think
1:12:51
Speaker 2: she survived by mommy and daddy sending her a check
1:12:54
Speaker 2: each month. So she could rent an apartment in downtown
1:12:57
Speaker 2: Seattle because she talks like the earth. Anyway, she became
1:13:02
Speaker 2: the elected mayor, a Democratic socialist elected mayor of Seattle.
1:13:06
Speaker 2: Absolute looney bin doesn't have a clue about that which
1:13:10
Speaker 2: she is doing. She got elected well. A Seattle nonprofit
1:13:15
Speaker 2: we Heart Seattle as in we Love Seattle, they're facing
1:13:18
Speaker 2: a Washington state investigation over how the organization's volunteers collect
1:13:25
Speaker 2: and dispose of used hypodermic needles and fentanyl foil from
1:13:29
Speaker 2: public spaces. You heard right. Let me explain what that means.
1:13:33
Speaker 2: So the city of Seattle basically encourages drug use, not
1:13:37
Speaker 2: unlike New York. They actually give drug paraphernalia, needles, matches,
1:13:41
Speaker 2: instead of going to somebody who's hooked on drugs and saying,
1:13:44
Speaker 2: let me get you into treatment. No, God forbid, that's judgmental.
1:13:49
Speaker 2: Let's just give them needles and foils and bongs. Let's
1:13:54
Speaker 2: just provide it for free, because that's somehow better for them. Really,
1:13:59
Speaker 2: let's incourage they're really bad habits that could end up
1:14:02
Speaker 2: in overdose. Oh yeah, that's better. So all you have
1:14:05
Speaker 2: to do is go up and ask. You get all
1:14:07
Speaker 2: these freebies. So the drug addicts do their drugs, and
1:14:11
Speaker 2: these are people, you know, when you're hooked on drugs,
1:14:13
Speaker 2: you don't care about anyone and anything. You will literally
1:14:15
Speaker 2: sell your soul. You'll sell your mother's soul to get
1:14:18
Speaker 2: your fix. So the drug addicts do their drugs, leave
1:14:23
Speaker 2: the discarded needles and paraphernalia all over the ground because
1:14:28
Speaker 2: in many cases they literally pass out as they inject
1:14:30
Speaker 2: themselves with heroin or whatever or fentanyl. They just pass
1:14:33
Speaker 2: out right there, So the needle, the used syringes falls
1:14:36
Speaker 2: to the ground. And then a day later, when they
1:14:38
Speaker 2: wake up and they kind of basically in a stupor
1:14:42
Speaker 2: walk to the corner to get their next fix, they
1:14:44
Speaker 2: just leave yead. They don't even realize they dropped a
1:14:46
Speaker 2: syringe because they don't remember what they did yesterday. They
1:14:49
Speaker 2: don't remember what they did five minutes ago. So all
1:14:52
Speaker 2: these syringes and the little uh crack vials and whatnot,
1:14:56
Speaker 2: that's just littering the ground. So you would think if
1:15:00
Speaker 2: the city of Seattle is providing this crap for them
1:15:03
Speaker 2: to inject into their veins, you would think the city
1:15:06
Speaker 2: of Seattle would then go pick up the mess. No, see,
1:15:11
Speaker 2: the drug addicts are shooting up in school grounds, parks
1:15:15
Speaker 2: where people bring their kids walk their dogs. Imagine having
1:15:18
Speaker 2: to walk your dog around discarded syringes. That's what's happening
1:15:22
Speaker 2: in Seattle right now. It's disgusting, absolutely disgusting. Well, this
1:15:27
Speaker 2: woman started an organization. Her name is Andrea Suarez, and
1:15:31
Speaker 2: again the organization is we Heart Seattle. And what she
1:15:36
Speaker 2: does is she and a bunch of volunteers. They dress
1:15:38
Speaker 2: up in hazmat suits and they have those long arms
1:15:41
Speaker 2: with the little clamps at the end so they could
1:15:44
Speaker 2: pick stuff up off the ground and not use their fingers,
1:15:47
Speaker 2: And they pick up all the discarded needles and all
1:15:50
Speaker 2: this junk, this discarded drug junk on the school grounds
1:15:54
Speaker 2: and public parks, so that kids don't have to encounter it,
1:15:58
Speaker 2: and people walking their dogs don't have to say see it,
1:16:00
Speaker 2: and if you're walking your children, you don't have to
1:16:02
Speaker 2: explain to the kids what it is. And rather than
1:16:05
Speaker 2: thanking her organization for doing this free of charge, she
1:16:11
Speaker 2: and her organization they're following all the rules, everything they're
1:16:14
Speaker 2: supposed to do. All right. Volunteers, I guess donate the
1:16:19
Speaker 2: money for them to get their hazmat suits and whatnot.
1:16:22
Speaker 2: Instead of saying thank you, the state is investigating her,
1:16:27
Speaker 2: saying that there was a complaint against her and the
1:16:30
Speaker 2: group alleging quote, improper handling and collection of drug paraphernalia. Really, so,
1:16:38
Speaker 2: the city of Seattle is not being discredited forgiving the
1:16:43
Speaker 2: drug paraphernalia. That's okay. The people who are shooting up
1:16:48
Speaker 2: in public and discarding the needles, they could do that,
1:16:52
Speaker 2: that's okay. But the volunteer who comes to clean up
1:16:57
Speaker 2: this crap so kids don't have to step on it,
1:17:00
Speaker 2: dogs don't have to get infected by it. That's the
1:17:03
Speaker 2: group we're gonna go after, folks. This is when the
1:17:07
Speaker 2: inmates are running the asylum. This is utter insanity, utter insanity.
1:17:14
Speaker 2: The King County Public Health Department, they should be charged
1:17:18
Speaker 2: for giving out the syringes, the fentanyl foil, the cookers, tourniquets,
1:17:22
Speaker 2: narcan cartridges. The federal government. By the way, it is
1:17:27
Speaker 2: no matter how legal they make drug use locally, and
1:17:30
Speaker 2: by the way, that includes marijuana use, it is still
1:17:33
Speaker 2: against the law federally. And by the way, here's another
1:17:37
Speaker 2: by the way, the Feds can step in and say
1:17:40
Speaker 2: uh uh uh, you can't do this now. The local
1:17:43
Speaker 2: governments would say it is not illegal to give out
1:17:47
Speaker 2: the syringes, the fedinyl foil. What it is illegal to
1:17:50
Speaker 2: give out the drugs, and we're not doing that. That's
1:17:52
Speaker 2: what they're gonna say. But I'm sure you could tweak
1:17:54
Speaker 2: a federal law that says anything that has to do
1:17:57
Speaker 2: with encouraging drug use, illicit drug use should be illegal,
1:18:01
Speaker 2: could be illegal. I'm sure there's some obscure law we
1:18:05
Speaker 2: could find and then send the Feds in. And you
1:18:07
Speaker 2: know what, let's just make an example of the King
1:18:11
Speaker 2: County Public Health Department and the New York Health Department
1:18:14
Speaker 2: too for doing the same thing with their quote unquote
1:18:16
Speaker 2: while we're doing the responsible thing giving clean syringes. So
1:18:19
Speaker 2: these people don't get infected with something. Guess what, they
1:18:22
Speaker 2: won't get infected with something if they're not doing heroin.
1:18:26
Speaker 2: And you don't help the problem by encouraging the use
1:18:28
Speaker 2: of heroin. Sorry, I don't mean to be a moralist here,
1:18:32
Speaker 2: but you don't encourage the end of bad behavior by
1:18:36
Speaker 2: encouraging bad behavior. It doesn't work that way. And if
1:18:39
Speaker 2: somebody insists on going through the hoops of getting high
1:18:43
Speaker 2: in spite of all our ability to help them, well
1:18:46
Speaker 2: that's on them. This organization, by the way, the iHeart Seattle.
1:18:51
Speaker 2: They have gathered two and a quarter million pounds of
1:18:55
Speaker 2: this drug trash since twenty twenty. And again the thanks
1:18:59
Speaker 2: from the state of Washington is to investigate them and
1:19:03
Speaker 2: potentially charge them only in America. Seven ten wor the
1:19:09
Speaker 2: Voice of New York Ken Risotto went for Mark love
1:19:12
Speaker 2: to hear what you have to say about that? Eight
1:19:13
Speaker 2: hundred three two one zero seven ten. Eight hundred three
1:19:17
Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten. Did you hear about what
1:19:20
Speaker 2: happened in Albany yesterday? FBI now saying thirty five year
1:19:25
Speaker 2: old Jessica Bowie of Albany. This is the FBI saying
1:19:29
Speaker 2: that she plotted to bomb the state capitol, transforming from
1:19:33
Speaker 2: a little girl waving the American flag apparently to pledging
1:19:36
Speaker 2: allegiance to ISIS and celebrating the nine to one one.
1:19:40
Speaker 2: I'm sorry the nine to eleven. I always confused that
1:19:42
Speaker 2: it's the nine eleven terror attacks. And Bowie allegedly began
1:19:47
Speaker 2: strategizing an attack on the state capitol in July, and
1:19:51
Speaker 2: the FBI says she planned to place the bomb in
1:19:54
Speaker 2: a door dash food delivery bag. So here is the
1:19:58
Speaker 2: FBI's Field Office Special Agent Craig Tremoroli talking about.
1:20:02
Speaker 14: This, Make no mistake about it. Miss Bowie's alleged plot
1:20:06
Speaker 14: was serious.
1:20:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, and serious it was. In fact, he talks a
1:20:10
Speaker 2: little bit more about her pledging her allegiance to ISIS.
1:20:13
Speaker 14: Miss Bowie swore her allegiance to ISIS through multiple audio recordings.
1:20:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they have a lot on her. They say
1:20:20
Speaker 2: they wouldn't have made this public statement if they didn't.
1:20:23
Speaker 2: The FBI is saying that allegedly Bowie told an FBI
1:20:28
Speaker 2: informant that it would be quote beautiful to blow the
1:20:32
Speaker 2: brains out of a nun Muslim. But waite I thought
1:20:35
Speaker 2: Islam was the religion of peace. So who are the
1:20:38
Speaker 2: people who got to her and said otherwise. I don't
1:20:41
Speaker 2: understand it the religion of peace. Somebody tell me otherwise.
1:20:44
Speaker 2: The FEDS say that she purchased bomb making materials from
1:20:47
Speaker 2: a home depot on August fifth, and that she planned
1:20:51
Speaker 2: the attack for earlier this week.
1:20:53
Speaker 3: Now.
1:20:53
Speaker 2: Bowie converted to Islam five years ago and was going
1:20:57
Speaker 2: by the Islamic name Aisha Saif, and just last month,
1:21:01
Speaker 2: another radicalized upstate New Yorker, thirty seven year old Katherine
1:21:04
Speaker 2: Beth Washburn was charged with allegedly supporting an Islamis terrorist
1:21:09
Speaker 2: organization after donating thirty thousand dollars in cryptocurrency to the
1:21:14
Speaker 2: Palestinian Islamic Jihad group in Gaza. So here's a question,
1:21:19
Speaker 2: what the hell is going on with liberal white women?
1:21:22
Speaker 2: They hate America. A pol just shows twenty six percent
1:21:25
Speaker 2: of liberal white women hate men. It's not that they
1:21:28
Speaker 2: dislike them. They despise men. They hate traditionalism, they hate morality,
1:21:34
Speaker 2: they hate society. What is going on? Who has gotten
1:21:39
Speaker 2: to them? Is this social media? Is this the result
1:21:42
Speaker 2: of decades of socialist brainwashing feminism run amuck. First they
1:21:48
Speaker 2: you know, they taught them, oh, you could have it all.
1:21:49
Speaker 2: I have a career, put off having children until you're ninety,
1:21:52
Speaker 2: which of course isn't true because you have a lot
1:21:54
Speaker 2: of women who get upset when they find out, oh
1:21:55
Speaker 2: I can't have kids now it's too late, you don't
1:21:58
Speaker 2: have to get married. The result is our population growth
1:22:01
Speaker 2: was severely curtailed, and you have a lot of very
1:22:04
Speaker 2: angry and very upset women. So I think as a
1:22:06
Speaker 2: society we really have to step back and think about
1:22:09
Speaker 2: what we've done. Because the most hardcore leftists we're finding
1:22:13
Speaker 2: are white liberal women. You got to scratch your head
1:22:16
Speaker 2: and say, what's causing this? And I think we need
1:22:19
Speaker 2: to have an open and frank discussion about it and
1:22:22
Speaker 2: maybe we can get to the bottom of it. But
1:22:23
Speaker 2: certainly they are the of all groups of people, of
1:22:27
Speaker 2: all demographics. It's the twenty something and thirty something year
1:22:31
Speaker 2: old and to some extent, early forty something white women
1:22:35
Speaker 2: who become the most ardent liberals. They could leave home
1:22:38
Speaker 2: and go to college from a very conservative, traditional home,
1:22:41
Speaker 2: and they come back with green hair and nose piercings
1:22:45
Speaker 2: and flying the Isis flag. And you've got to wonder
1:22:50
Speaker 2: what is going on. Seven to ten wo R the
1:22:52
Speaker 2: Voice of New York. It's Ken Risotto Win from Mark

Speaker 1: Ken FROMAR today here's Ken Rosotto.
1:23:23
Speaker 2: And it's so nice to be with you on this Friday.
1:23:27
Speaker 2: It's going to be a decent day today. And I
1:23:28
Speaker 2: know who's gonna make it more decent, our friend, Vincent
1:23:30
Speaker 2: and Brooklyn, Good morning.
1:23:31
Speaker 10: Vincent, Good morning Ken. Ken. About sixty years ago, I
1:23:36
Speaker 10: attended an all boys vocational high school, and I had
1:23:39
Speaker 10: a great home economics teacher. And when he wasn't talking
1:23:43
Speaker 10: about how to balance your checkbook and how to how
1:23:48
Speaker 10: to survive on your salary, he talked about world events
1:23:52
Speaker 10: and he taught. He spoke about his eye. And this
1:23:55
Speaker 10: man was an Oskenazi Jew. And he said, unlike Christiaanity, Judaism, Taoism,
1:24:03
Speaker 10: and Buddhism, he says, the difference between those religions and Islam.
1:24:08
Speaker 10: He says, Islam it's either you convert or I'll cut
1:24:12
Speaker 10: your throat. Whereas Judaism you want to be a Jew. Fine. Christianity,
1:24:18
Speaker 10: you want to be a Christian. Fine. Even the missionaries,
1:24:21
Speaker 10: the Christian missionaries when they went around the world, mainly
1:24:25
Speaker 10: they went to these countries where people were really sick.
1:24:28
Speaker 10: They whether in China and elsewhere in Africa. They were
1:24:34
Speaker 10: there to bring fresh water, food. Yeah, they set up
1:24:38
Speaker 10: schools and everything. But if you didn't want to go,
1:24:40
Speaker 10: you didn't want to go. Ken In Italy, especially in Milan,
1:24:46
Speaker 10: in the big cities, they have big crime problems because
1:24:50
Speaker 10: the first and set there's mainly the second generation of
1:24:55
Speaker 10: the Arab peoples that came to work in Italy, got
1:25:01
Speaker 10: their citizenship, learned to speak the language, were well placed
1:25:05
Speaker 10: in society. Their children, like a lot of our children here,
1:25:09
Speaker 10: they don't want any part of it. They want to
1:25:11
Speaker 10: be drug dealers. They want to be criminals. They go
1:25:14
Speaker 10: into these high end shopping stores like they do out
1:25:18
Speaker 10: in the West Coast, and here fifty kids and they
1:25:21
Speaker 10: just clean it out. They just take over. And recently
1:25:25
Speaker 10: I saw a video where a policeman was trying to
1:25:27
Speaker 10: stop them. They beat the living daylights out of the cops.
1:25:32
Speaker 2: And if I could just step in for one second,
1:25:34
Speaker 2: let's just be clear. They're and I got I know
1:25:37
Speaker 2: it sounds like, oh really, there are plenty of good ones. Yes,
1:25:40
Speaker 2: they're a plenty of beautiful levels.
1:25:42
Speaker 10: You and I both from that.
1:25:44
Speaker 2: No, but you're right, you're giving real life examples of
1:25:47
Speaker 2: things that happen. Are they think about this many, not all,
1:25:51
Speaker 2: but many of the people who commuted, who traveled to Italy, Spain, Portugal,
1:25:57
Speaker 2: parts of France, right Paris. They were gangsters and drug
1:26:01
Speaker 2: dealers looking to make a buck. So they looked as
1:26:03
Speaker 2: they are opportunists, they went there. They just happened to
1:26:07
Speaker 2: be from Islamic countries, so it's not that they were
1:26:10
Speaker 2: going there. But yeah, they come, they come with their
1:26:13
Speaker 2: their mentality boom. There is an investigation going on right
1:26:17
Speaker 2: now here in Manhattan where there is a place where
1:26:21
Speaker 2: all the pushcart people bring their pushcarts and it is
1:26:25
Speaker 2: sort of a secret, behind the scenes mosque, and so
1:26:29
Speaker 2: you go in, you drop off your cart and there
1:26:32
Speaker 2: is literally a mosque running on the inside. But there's
1:26:36
Speaker 2: a lot of conversation going on. And the question is
1:26:39
Speaker 2: some of the individuals there are there for nefarious reasons.
1:26:43
Speaker 2: That's the investigation. Nothing's been proven yet, it's under investigation,
1:26:46
Speaker 2: but I think we're going to find out a lot
1:26:48
Speaker 2: more about this in the weeks and months to come.
1:26:50
Speaker 10: Yeah, in Colabria, the Colabria mafia what they what they
1:26:55
Speaker 10: they did? They now employ the black my grins from Africa.
1:27:01
Speaker 10: They had the main cocaine traffickers, the Colombian send it
1:27:05
Speaker 10: to the mob in Colabria, and then they distributed. The
1:27:11
Speaker 10: black Africans are the dealers, are the street dealers, the
1:27:15
Speaker 10: head honchos that are Colabrian the mafia, but the street
1:27:19
Speaker 10: dealers are the African. Well, the black Africans aken, And
1:27:25
Speaker 10: it's the same thing in Milan. I was coming home
1:27:29
Speaker 10: from a pastry shop with my friend Alfred, from a
1:27:33
Speaker 10: Sicilian pastry shop, and this zombie, this junkie comes up
1:27:37
Speaker 10: to our car and he didn't know who he was
1:27:40
Speaker 10: fooling with. My buddy Alfredo doesn't take anything from anybody.
1:27:44
Speaker 10: He grabbed this guy by the neck under no certain terms,
1:27:48
Speaker 10: made him realize that if he went forward, well.
1:27:52
Speaker 2: Let's just say, let's just say here, Vincent, before we
1:27:54
Speaker 2: indict anybody, let's just say that he had a little
1:27:56
Speaker 2: conversation with this individual.
1:27:59
Speaker 7: Exactly.
1:28:00
Speaker 10: I made that guy have a conversation with whoever he
1:28:03
Speaker 10: calls his god.
1:28:04
Speaker 2: Accidentally, Accidentally, this individual, let's just say, his individual teeth
1:28:09
Speaker 2: ended up in the on the floor as.
1:28:12
Speaker 10: You got on the gun.
1:28:13
Speaker 2: Ken, It's just amazing how his face kept hitting your
1:28:15
Speaker 2: friend's hand and it just wouldn't stop.
1:28:18
Speaker 10: Exactly, Ken, Exactly, Man, Well, you have a great week
1:28:23
Speaker 10: A great speaking to your zoys, and hey man, what
1:28:27
Speaker 10: a rough summer this has been, between these heat waves,
1:28:30
Speaker 10: these downpours. Late last night, I was running up and
1:28:33
Speaker 10: down between my cella and Paula Floyd trying to make
1:28:37
Speaker 10: sure that my house wasn't going to float away.
1:28:40
Speaker 2: It was crazy, it was It's amazing how much water
1:28:43
Speaker 2: fell at once, Vincent, I'm with you.
1:28:44
Speaker 15: My friend Milan actually in the middle of the night
1:28:49
Speaker 15: set me a picture of that water spot that hit
1:28:53
Speaker 15: the south shore of Long Island.
1:28:55
Speaker 2: I love it how somebody in Milan is letting us
1:28:57
Speaker 2: know about something happening two miles away from him.
1:29:00
Speaker 10: Because I was so busy worried about my own property.
1:29:03
Speaker 2: Oh jeez, it's crazy. It's crazy, Vinza, I was saying,
1:29:07
Speaker 2: I watched this guy on YouTube. He's a meteorologist in
1:29:11
Speaker 2: the South, and I'll just say the word. Y'all people
1:29:14
Speaker 2: who are into who are weather geeks will know who
1:29:16
Speaker 2: I'm talking about. I don't want to promote the show
1:29:18
Speaker 2: there was. He already has like a million followers, but
1:29:20
Speaker 2: he he is this brilliant meteorologist and he has this
1:29:24
Speaker 2: network of cameras and radars from all over the country.
1:29:28
Speaker 2: He was all over the Northeast with these storms yesterday,
1:29:31
Speaker 2: like white on Rice. Everybody who's like all these meteorologists
1:29:35
Speaker 2: were calling into him, showing and helping him, and it
1:29:38
Speaker 2: was crazy to watch. But as that water spout was forming,
1:29:42
Speaker 2: he had it live. It was crazy to watch it.
1:29:44
Speaker 2: But thank god I.
1:29:46
Speaker 10: Saw it live. What it was hitting Atlantic Beach this morning.
1:29:50
Speaker 10: I saw a feet of it that was somebody captured.
1:29:54
Speaker 10: And hey, thank.
1:29:56
Speaker 9: God only one.
1:30:00
Speaker 10: You could always replace property and and things. Thank God
1:30:03
Speaker 10: there is no loss of life. That's all.
1:30:05
Speaker 2: Like, Vincent, my friend, you have a wonderful weekend. Enjoy it.
1:30:10
Speaker 2: I know summer's coming to an end, so you enjoy yourself.
1:30:13
Speaker 10: All right, you too can thank you, great weekend. Wait,
1:30:16
Speaker 10: speak to you as always, ken like you can't buddy out.
1:30:19
Speaker 2: Thank you Bill in New Jersey, thank you for being
1:30:22
Speaker 2: so patient. Good morning to you.
1:30:25
Speaker 7: Wow, that was a long one.
1:30:28
Speaker 2: Listen. The rule of thumb is you don't cut off Vincent.
1:30:32
Speaker 2: Just think of the guy in Mala.
1:30:33
Speaker 7: Okay, I guess, I guess.
1:30:36
Speaker 16: Well, I'm going to bring up a subject that has
1:30:39
Speaker 16: been talked about for thousands of years, and it'll be
1:30:41
Speaker 16: talking about for thousands more.
1:30:44
Speaker 7: But it's religion.
1:30:46
Speaker 16: It's God, who is God in everybody's mind. You mentioned
1:30:50
Speaker 16: all the different religions before, and I'll speak briefly about
1:30:56
Speaker 16: Christianity and Jesus. Was Jesus is born? And did he
1:31:02
Speaker 16: die as a Jew? Many will say yes, did he
1:31:06
Speaker 16: live the Jewish way of life? Well, the Jews back
1:31:10
Speaker 16: in the day didn't seem to believe so, because they
1:31:13
Speaker 16: called him a blasphemer and they had him crucified. So,
1:31:18
Speaker 16: you know, I talked too many Jews that are my friends,
1:31:22
Speaker 16: and they say, you know, being a Jew is the
1:31:25
Speaker 16: way of life, and if you don't live the Jewish
1:31:27
Speaker 16: way of life, then you're not a Jew. And these
1:31:30
Speaker 16: guys are my age in the seventies. They have sons
1:31:33
Speaker 16: who are Orthodox jew and they call their fathers half
1:31:36
Speaker 16: pass Jews because they don't go to the temple or
1:31:39
Speaker 16: synagogue and they don't practice the faith. They just want
1:31:42
Speaker 16: to run their businesses. So Christianity, it begins with Christ Christmas,
1:31:48
Speaker 16: it begins with Christ.
1:31:50
Speaker 10: Was Jesus a Jew?
1:31:53
Speaker 7: Evidently not because they killed him? Because he spoke again
1:31:58
Speaker 7: of life started Christianity. So the Catholics follow that closer
1:32:04
Speaker 7: than any other religion than.
1:32:06
Speaker 2: The Orthodox and the Orthodox. We got to say, we
1:32:08
Speaker 2: have to always throw that out. I was a Catholic priest,
1:32:10
Speaker 2: so we always say the Catholic and the Orthodox together
1:32:12
Speaker 2: really followed. In fact, the Orthodox would say their tradition
1:32:15
Speaker 2: is actually more closely related. And I don't. I'm only
1:32:17
Speaker 2: cutting us off because because we have news coming up here.
1:32:20
Speaker 2: But Bill, you're you're not wrong. A lot of that.
1:32:23
Speaker 2: We could have the discussion about whether he was a Jew.
1:32:26
Speaker 2: I think most people would say most that he was
1:32:29
Speaker 2: a Jew because he never remember he never abolished Judaism
1:32:33
Speaker 2: per se. I know people are going to debate me
1:32:36
Speaker 2: on that he is the He was meant to bring
1:32:39
Speaker 2: the faith and the resurrection and blah blah blh et cetera,
1:32:41
Speaker 2: et cetera. I don't want to get into a religious discussion.
1:32:43
Speaker 2: We could do that off the ear. But Jesus was
1:32:46
Speaker 2: supposed to be the let's say, say, the reader's digest
1:32:49
Speaker 2: version and to bring everybody back to the faith. But
1:32:52
Speaker 2: again that's a discussion for another day. But thank you
1:32:55
Speaker 2: very much, Bill, I appreciate it. But yes, religion, while
1:32:58
Speaker 2: people love to criticize and say, you see the world religions,
1:33:01
Speaker 2: they're the cause of all the wars. No, no, no no,
1:33:04
Speaker 2: it's people are the cause of the war. It's not
1:33:05
Speaker 2: the religion. So please let's let's not go there. Seven
1:33:08
Speaker 2: ten wore The Voice of New York No.
1:33:11
Speaker 1: Mark Simon Show, Live from the wr like Back Studios.
1:33:16
Speaker 2: Guest hosting from Mark Today.
1:33:18
Speaker 1: Here's Ken Rosato.
1:33:20
Speaker 2: And so good to be with you on a Friday.
1:33:23
Speaker 2: Seven ten woor The Voice of New York. You know
1:33:26
Speaker 2: school districts that are keeping secrets from parents when children
1:33:30
Speaker 2: socially transition in school, they're now in for rude awakening.
1:33:33
Speaker 2: There is now a lawsuit against the New Jersey school
1:33:36
Speaker 2: district regarding student gender identity. Attorney Ronald Burrudi filed suit
1:33:42
Speaker 2: against the district that was allegedly socially transitioning a child
1:33:45
Speaker 2: without telling the parents and without their consent. The school
1:33:49
Speaker 2: says under New Jersey State Policy fifty seven fifty six,
1:33:52
Speaker 2: they have no obligation to notify the parents and the
1:33:55
Speaker 2: doing so would violate students privacy and safety. But saying
1:33:58
Speaker 2: people say this is a violation of parental rights. Attorney
1:34:03
Speaker 2: Ronald Berrudi, Good morning, and welcome to the Mark Simone Show.
1:34:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, good morning, Kent. Thanks for having me.
1:34:08
Speaker 2: You bet so, talk about the main argument in your complaint.
1:34:13
Speaker 12: Yeah, So, in the complaint that we have in state court,
1:34:21
Speaker 12: the child a minor child of a married couple. He's
1:34:27
Speaker 12: in school and decides that she wanted to start being
1:34:31
Speaker 12: called by a boy's name and wanted to change your pronouns.
1:34:35
Speaker 12: So the school district then began honoring her wishes and
1:34:42
Speaker 12: created a whole separate set of records of using a
1:34:46
Speaker 12: petitive boy's name instead of her given name, and then
1:34:49
Speaker 12: kept its secrets from the parents, who eventually found out
1:34:53
Speaker 12: not from the school. And so the argument is that
1:34:57
Speaker 12: the parents have an absolute constitutional right under the fourteenth
1:35:01
Speaker 12: Amendment to their parental rights are being violated, and also
1:35:07
Speaker 12: they have religious objections to this practice. And because they
1:35:11
Speaker 12: did not have an opportunity to opt out of what
1:35:14
Speaker 12: is the school wide school district wide policy promoted by
1:35:18
Speaker 12: the state. No less, so they didn't have an opportunity
1:35:22
Speaker 12: to opt out, their first Amendment free exercise rights are
1:35:26
Speaker 12: also being violated.
1:35:28
Speaker 2: Now, describe what this is when we're talking about policy
1:35:32
Speaker 2: fifty seven fifty six in New Jersey, and is that constitutional?
1:35:37
Speaker 3: No? Our argument is that it is not.
1:35:39
Speaker 12: The court in our New Jersey case has granted a
1:35:44
Speaker 12: temporary restraining order preventing the state and the school district
1:35:48
Speaker 12: in question to preventing them from continuing on with these policies,
1:35:55
Speaker 12: depending a hearing on the merits, which will be held
1:35:57
Speaker 12: on September third in the on This County courthouse.
1:36:01
Speaker 2: I mean, this is along the same lines as we've
1:36:04
Speaker 2: heard of school districts around the country who take a
1:36:07
Speaker 2: child who wants to have an abortion across state lines.
1:36:10
Speaker 2: And this is this is an absolute violation of parental
1:36:14
Speaker 2: school trust. You pay school taxes, You put your child
1:36:18
Speaker 2: on a school bus, and you assume that the child
1:36:21
Speaker 2: will be protected through the day and come back the
1:36:24
Speaker 2: child that you left at the school bus in the morning,
1:36:26
Speaker 2: and that isn't the case.
1:36:28
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's very difficult to deal with this for these parents.
1:36:34
Speaker 12: I have three of these cases right now, and I
1:36:36
Speaker 12: know of others that are percolating.
1:36:38
Speaker 3: The parents are really.
1:36:42
Speaker 12: They don't they can't believe that this is happening to
1:36:44
Speaker 12: their child typically and that they've been not been able
1:36:48
Speaker 12: to get help. I have another case where a parent
1:36:50
Speaker 12: was helping a child, you know, and I had no
1:36:53
Speaker 12: problem with the child deciding to transition once she was
1:36:58
Speaker 12: eighteen years old, but while the child was eighteen years old,
1:37:03
Speaker 12: under eighteen and under his roof. He wanted to be
1:37:06
Speaker 12: able to work through things with the child because truth is,
1:37:11
Speaker 12: brains aren't fully formed until the mid twenties, and children
1:37:15
Speaker 12: need their parents guidance. Fit parents, that is, you know,
1:37:18
Speaker 12: we're not talking about abusive parents. We're talking fit parents.
1:37:21
Speaker 2: Right, And that's one of the arguments I guess that
1:37:23
Speaker 2: the districts were making was that, you know, in these cases,
1:37:28
Speaker 2: these kids could be subjected to abuse at home if
1:37:32
Speaker 2: the parents knew that this was happening at school. But
1:37:35
Speaker 2: if that were the case, there are other laws that
1:37:37
Speaker 2: are being violated if the parents are being abusive, right,
1:37:40
Speaker 2: And that's a separate and above and beyond this.
1:37:43
Speaker 12: Oh, absolutely, and no parents should be abusive and no
1:37:47
Speaker 12: parental abuse should be tolerated, and it's not by law.
1:37:52
Speaker 12: But we're talking fit parents. And look, the story I
1:37:56
Speaker 12: hear from parents who have gone through this is not
1:37:59
Speaker 12: that they're.
1:38:00
Speaker 3: Angry at their child.
1:38:01
Speaker 12: It's that they are so sorrowful that they were not
1:38:06
Speaker 12: able to talk to their child and speak to the
1:38:09
Speaker 12: child and try to work through it with their child
1:38:11
Speaker 12: and try to understand what was going on with the child.
1:38:14
Speaker 12: It's a loss of family. It's a complete really, it's
1:38:17
Speaker 12: a destruction of the family. It's not a matter of
1:38:20
Speaker 12: being angry with the child. The children have all sorts
1:38:22
Speaker 12: of issues, and parents are supposed to play the primary
1:38:28
Speaker 12: role in raising children, be it for educational or for
1:38:32
Speaker 12: medical issues.
1:38:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, but again, the idea that the parent sort of
1:38:37
Speaker 2: has a feeling of having one pulled over on them.
1:38:40
Speaker 2: That the only one who the secret is kept from
1:38:43
Speaker 2: is the parent, and yet the parent is the one
1:38:45
Speaker 2: forced to pay the school taxes, the parent is the
1:38:48
Speaker 2: one forced to care for the child, and yet the
1:38:50
Speaker 2: parent is the one that the secret is kept from,
1:38:53
Speaker 2: is just infuriating.
1:38:55
Speaker 12: Well, that's actually an interesting point because one of the
1:38:57
Speaker 12: issues is, look, the school administrators, none of whom is
1:39:03
Speaker 12: none of these people are educated in any kind of
1:39:07
Speaker 12: psychotherapy or anything like that. There's school administrators, people with
1:39:10
Speaker 12: teaching degrees, administrative degrees, they're not professionals, and they're doing
1:39:14
Speaker 12: this transitioning and at some point the child leaves the
1:39:18
Speaker 12: school and those people are out of their lives. The parents, though,
1:39:22
Speaker 12: are still going to be responsible for paying for all
1:39:26
Speaker 12: the psychiatric treatments, the medical treatments, anything that comes up.
1:39:33
Speaker 3: The parents are forever going to be on the hook
1:39:35
Speaker 3: for these things.
1:39:35
Speaker 12: And there are plenty cases where.
1:39:40
Speaker 3: Where there are children.
1:39:42
Speaker 12: Who have transitioned and as adults they want to they
1:39:46
Speaker 12: wish they hadn't done that, They wish they could transition
1:39:48
Speaker 12: back that because they made a decision too early in
1:39:51
Speaker 12: their lives. There are many people who transitioned and they're happy,
1:39:56
Speaker 12: and God bless them. To me, that's not something that
1:40:00
Speaker 12: I'm against. If they're emotionally able to do that and
1:40:05
Speaker 12: want to do that, that's their business. But for a child,
1:40:08
Speaker 12: the child is the business of the parent, and the
1:40:11
Speaker 12: parents have absolute constitutional rights, and it's the parent ultimately
1:40:16
Speaker 12: who has.
1:40:17
Speaker 3: To bear the burden.
1:40:19
Speaker 12: Of how the child turns out in terms of happiness
1:40:25
Speaker 12: and psychological impact and frankly physical impact as well.
1:40:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're talking with attorney Ron Burruti, who is in
1:40:32
Speaker 2: the middle of several lawsuits. Actually, one we're talking about
1:40:35
Speaker 2: right now is involving a New Jersey school district where
1:40:38
Speaker 2: children are allowed to be in the school district transitioning
1:40:42
Speaker 2: socially and the parents are not told of this. So
1:40:45
Speaker 2: this is what the lawsuit is about and you have
1:40:48
Speaker 2: two other lawsuits. Talk about the federal lawsuits if you can.
1:40:52
Speaker 3: Yeah.
1:40:53
Speaker 12: So I have one case that was pending for a
1:40:56
Speaker 12: few years now, which is a similar.
1:40:59
Speaker 3: Tale of of a daughter of.
1:41:02
Speaker 12: A father, a single father, whose wife had died when
1:41:07
Speaker 12: the child was four years old, and she had suffered
1:41:10
Speaker 12: obviously through lots of trauma.
1:41:12
Speaker 3: Also, you know, someone on the.
1:41:16
Speaker 12: Spectrum for autism, which is the school district's really really
1:41:21
Speaker 12: go after those kids because a lot of them feel
1:41:23
Speaker 12: out of place already because of their autism. But this
1:41:28
Speaker 12: girl was actually had spoken to her father about this,
1:41:32
Speaker 12: and she was undergoing various therapy and you know, nothing
1:41:39
Speaker 12: to try to dissuadeter, but to try to help her,
1:41:41
Speaker 12: to make sure that she was, you know, feeling the
1:41:44
Speaker 12: right way and that she was not just being impulsive.
1:41:47
Speaker 12: And that was the situation again where the father was
1:41:50
Speaker 12: said at eighteen, if you want to do this on
1:41:51
Speaker 12: your own, that's your business.
1:41:53
Speaker 3: But you're under my roof right now, and I want
1:41:55
Speaker 3: to help you.
1:41:56
Speaker 12: But still she told the school she joined the club
1:41:59
Speaker 12: and told the school that she'd liked to be called
1:42:01
Speaker 12: by a boy's name. And it was months after the
1:42:04
Speaker 12: fact that the father learned and he was just really
1:42:09
Speaker 12: taken aback that this was happening behind his back, that
1:42:12
Speaker 12: school officials would call him used his daughter's name as
1:42:17
Speaker 12: a female, but at all other times would refer to
1:42:20
Speaker 12: the daughter as by a boy's name. And the child
1:42:25
Speaker 12: was leading a double life and was really struggling psychologist
1:42:30
Speaker 12: psychologically because of it. And we sued for him on
1:42:36
Speaker 12: grounds of parental rights, alleging that this was unconstitutional.
1:42:40
Speaker 2: Ron do you see this going to the Supreme Court?
1:42:43
Speaker 12: Well, the interesting part is that the United States Supreme
1:42:45
Speaker 12: Court has already ruled on this issue, at least temporarily
1:42:50
Speaker 12: in California that had the same types of policies. Supreme
1:42:54
Speaker 12: Court recently ruled that there's a likelihood of success on
1:42:56
Speaker 12: the merits that California an injunction would be issued against
1:43:00
Speaker 12: California from engaging in these practices. But New Jersey, among
1:43:05
Speaker 12: other states, still does this and still has these policies.
1:43:09
Speaker 12: And we're now relying upon that case in the Supreme
1:43:13
Speaker 12: Court that came out of California in support of our
1:43:16
Speaker 12: case here, and with that ruling, we feel that we
1:43:20
Speaker 12: have a tremendous chance of success on any and all
1:43:23
Speaker 12: of these cases that we're taking with regard to parents' rights.
1:43:27
Speaker 2: All right, Ron Baruti attorney, please keep us abreast of things,
1:43:30
Speaker 2: let us know what happens with these cases. And thanks
1:43:33
Speaker 2: for being on the Mark Simone Show.
1:43:35
Speaker 3: Thanks so much for having Meket.
1:43:36
Speaker 2: Rozettowin from Mark on your Friday. When we come back,
1:43:38
Speaker 2: we'll take more of your calls and numbers. Eight hundred
1:43:41
Speaker 2: three two one zero seven ten eight hundred three two
1:43:44
Speaker 2: one zero seven ten calling now for wr.
1:43:47
Speaker 1: Now more of the Mark Simone Show on seven to
1:43:50
Speaker 1: ten wor filling in for Mark. Here again is Ken Rosatto.
1:43:55
Speaker 2: Hey, good to be with you on a Friday. Straight
1:43:57
Speaker 2: to our busy phones. We go to Roger in a store.
1:44:00
Speaker 2: Thanks for being sir, patient Roger, Good morning, my friend.
1:44:08
Speaker 17: So my take is that this should go to the
1:44:11
Speaker 17: Supreme Court just as fast as possible so that you
1:44:14
Speaker 17: don't have to go through fifty states worth of you know,
1:44:18
Speaker 17: somebody deciding this or deciding that. And my opinion is
1:44:23
Speaker 17: that inherent in almost anybody's, in almost any culture's definition
1:44:30
Speaker 17: of what a parent is. You know, they have the
1:44:33
Speaker 17: welfare of the child. They cannot be cut out of something,
1:44:37
Speaker 17: especially something as important as a child's formative thoughts as
1:44:45
Speaker 17: to their sexuality.
1:44:47
Speaker 2: H Roger, I don't mean to cut you off when
1:44:49
Speaker 2: we have the news here. You're one hundred percent right.
1:44:51
Speaker 2: I'm with you one hundred percent. I just hope to
1:44:53
Speaker 2: God that the courts continue to side with parents, because
1:44:58
Speaker 2: it's kind of horrible when you consider parents. You have
1:45:00
Speaker 2: to feed, clothes, protect your child, right, we have to
1:45:03
Speaker 2: pay for the school taxes, and then what the school
1:45:06
Speaker 2: district gets to do whatever they want with your child,
1:45:08
Speaker 2: and including things like letting them transition without your permission
1:45:11
Speaker 2: and keep you out of the loop. Now not acceptable.
1:45:14
Speaker 2: Marks can be back in the seat on Monday. Thank
1:45:16
Speaker 2: you to Mark and to war for letting me sit in.
1:45:18
Speaker 2: I'm Ken Rosado, Buck and Clay are coming up next
1:45:21
Speaker 2: three o'clock Sean Hannity, six o'clock it is Jesse Kelly,
1:45:25
Speaker 2: Jimmy Falay in at nine. Don't forget again bucking Clay
1:45:28
Speaker 2: after the news. Have a great day and a great weekend.
1:45:30
Speaker 2: From seven to ten, Wr
